Detailed Description

The morph target base class. Morph targets apply additive modifications to nodes or meshes or anything else.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ EPhonemeSet

enum EMotionFX::MorphTarget::EPhonemeSet

The phoneme sets, used for lip-sync. If you modify this enum, be sure to also modify the value returned by: MorphTarget::GetNumAvailablePhonemeSets().

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ MorphTarget()

EMotionFX::MorphTarget::MorphTarget ( const char * name )

protected

The constructor.

Parameters

name	The unique name of the morph target.

Member Function Documentation

◆ Apply()

virtual void EMotionFX::MorphTarget::Apply	(	ActorInstance *	actorInstance,
		float	weight
	)

pure virtual

Apply the relative deformations for this morph target to the given actor instance.

Parameters

actorInstance	The actor instance to apply the deformations on.
weight	The absolute weight of the morph target.

Implemented in EMotionFX::MorphTargetStandard.

◆ ApplyTransformation()

virtual void EMotionFX::MorphTarget::ApplyTransformation	(	ActorInstance *	actorInstance,
		size_t	nodeIndex,
		AZ::Vector3 &	position,
		AZ::Quaternion &	rotation,
		AZ::Vector3 &	scale,
		float	weight
	)

pure virtual

Apply a transformation to the given position, rotation and scale, on such a way that this morph target adjusts the given transformation data. On this way we can accumulate the effects of different morph targets to the same node.

Parameters

actorInstance	The actor instance to apply the transform to.
nodeIndex	The node where the given transform info belongs to, so the node which we are adjusting. However the node itself will not be modified by this method.
position	This must contain the initial position, and will be modified inside this method as well.
rotation	This must contain the initial rotation, and will be modified inside this method as well.
scale	This must contain the initial scale, and will be modified inside this method as well.
weight	The absolute weight value.

Implemented in EMotionFX::MorphTargetStandard.

◆ CalcNormalizedWeight()

float EMotionFX::MorphTarget::CalcNormalizedWeight ( float rangedWeight ) const

Calculate a normalized weight, in range of [0..1], based on the current weight, and the currently setup min and max range of the morph target.

Parameters

rangedWeight The weight, which is in range of [minRange..maxRange].

Returns: The weight value in range of [0..1].

◆ CalcRangedWeight()

float EMotionFX::MorphTarget::CalcRangedWeight ( float weight ) const

Calculate the range based weight value from a normalized weight value given by a facial animation key frame.

Parameters

weight The normalized weight value, which must be in range of [0..1].

Returns: The weight value to be used in calculations. The returned value will be in range of [GetRangeMin()..GetRangeMax()]

◆ CalcZeroInfluenceWeight()

float EMotionFX::MorphTarget::CalcZeroInfluenceWeight ( ) const

Calculates the normalized weight value that is in range of [0..1], on which this morph target would have no influence. A normalized weight of zero doesn't mean that this morph target has no influence. It is possible that the minimum range value of the slider is for example -1, while the maximum range would be 1. In that case a weight value of 0, would mean a un-normalized (ranged) weight of -1. The normalized weight that has a ranged (unnormalized) weight of zero would be 0.5 in this case. This method calculates the normalized weight value that is in range of [0..1] which would result in a ranged (un-normalized) weight of zero.

Returns: The normalized weight value that will result in a ranged weight of zero, which would mean no influence.

◆ Clone()

virtual MorphTarget* EMotionFX::MorphTarget::Clone ( ) const

pure virtual

Creates an exact clone of this morph target.

Returns: Returns a pointer to an exact clone of this morph target.

Implemented in EMotionFX::MorphTargetStandard.

◆ CopyBaseClassMemberValues()

void EMotionFX::MorphTarget::CopyBaseClassMemberValues ( MorphTarget * target ) const

Copy the morph target base class members over to another morph target. This can be used when implementing your own Clone method for your own morph target.

Parameters

target The morph target to copy the data from.

◆ EnablePhonemeSet()

void EMotionFX::MorphTarget::EnablePhonemeSet	(	EPhonemeSet	set,
		bool	enabled
	)

Link or unlink this morph target with a given phoneme set.

Parameters

set	The phoneme set to link or unlink this morph target with.
enabled	Set to true to link it with the given set, or false to unlink it.

◆ FindPhonemeSet()

static EPhonemeSet EMotionFX::MorphTarget::FindPhonemeSet ( const AZStd::string & phonemeName )

static

Convert the given phoneme name to a phoneme set. Searches all phoneme sets and checks if the passed phoneme name is part of a phoneme set.

Parameters

phonemeName The name of the phoneme (e.g. "UW", TH", "EY").

Returns: The corresponding phoneme set. If the phoneme set has not been found or if it is empty the PHONEMESET_NEUTRAL_POSE value will be returned.

◆ GetID()

MCORE_INLINE uint32 EMotionFX::MorphTarget::GetID ( ) const

inline

Get the unique ID of this morph target. Just like in the Node class, the ID is generated based on the name (a string). Every string containing the same text will have the same ID. With this we can reduce from expensive name compares to simple integer compares.

Returns: The unique ID of the morph target.

◆ GetIsPhoneme()

bool EMotionFX::MorphTarget::GetIsPhoneme ( ) const

Check if this morph target acts as phoneme or not. A morph target is marked as phoneme if the phoneme set is set to something different than PHONEMESET_NONE. On default, after constructing the morph target, the value is set to PHONEMESET_NONE, which means that on default the morph target is not a phoneme.

Returns: Returns true if this morph target represents a phoneme, false is returned in the other case.

◆ GetIsPhonemeSetEnabled()

bool EMotionFX::MorphTarget::GetIsPhonemeSetEnabled ( EPhonemeSet set ) const

Check if this morph target represents a given phoneme set or not.

Returns: Returns true when this morph target represents the specified phoneme set. Otherwise false is returned.

◆ GetName()

const char* EMotionFX::MorphTarget::GetName ( ) const

Get the unique name of the morph target.

Returns: The name of the morph target.

◆ GetNameString()

const AZStd::string& EMotionFX::MorphTarget::GetNameString ( ) const

Get the unique name of the morph target, in form of a AZStd::string object.

Returns: The name of the morph target.

◆ GetNumAvailablePhonemeSets()

static uint32 EMotionFX::MorphTarget::GetNumAvailablePhonemeSets ( )

static

Get the number of available phoneme sets inside the enum EPhonemeSet. The PHONEMESET_NONE enum value is not included in this amount.

Returns: Amount of available phoneme sets.

◆ GetPhonemeSets()

EPhonemeSet EMotionFX::MorphTarget::GetPhonemeSets ( ) const

Get the phoneme sets. This is used for lipsync generation. It allows us to link the visual representation of a phoneme with one detected in the audio file/stream.

Returns: The phoneme sets represented by this morph target.

◆ GetPhonemeSetString()

static AZStd::string EMotionFX::MorphTarget::GetPhonemeSetString ( const EPhonemeSet phonemeSet )

static

Get the name of a phoneme set from the given phoneme set type. This is used to get phoneme morph targets names. NOTE: If this morph target represents multiple phoneme sets, it will be separated with a comma character. An example of a returned string: "PHONEMESET_L_EL,PHONEMESET_W".

Parameters

phonemeSet The phoneme set value.

Returns: String describing the given phoneme set.

◆ GetRangeMax()

float EMotionFX::MorphTarget::GetRangeMax ( ) const

Get the maximum weight range value of this morph target. On default this value is one. For more information about what exactly this 'range' is, see the method SetRangeMin().

Returns: The maximum weight range value.

See also: SetRangeMin

◆ GetRangeMin()

float EMotionFX::MorphTarget::GetRangeMin ( ) const

Get the minimum weight range value of this morph target. On default this value is zero. For more information about what exactly this 'range' is, see the method SetRangeMin().

Returns: The minumim weight range value.

See also: SetRangeMin

◆ GetType()

virtual uint32 EMotionFX::MorphTarget::GetType ( ) const

pure virtual

Get the type of morph target. You can have different types of morph targets, such as morph targets which work with bones, or which work with morphing or other techniques.

Returns: The unique type ID of the morph target.

Implemented in EMotionFX::MorphTargetStandard.

◆ Influences()

virtual bool EMotionFX::MorphTarget::Influences ( size_t nodeIndex ) const

pure virtual

Checks if this morph target would influence a given node.

Parameters

nodeIndex The node number to perform the check on.

Returns: Returns true if the given node will be modified by this morph target, otherwise false is returned.

Implemented in EMotionFX::MorphTargetStandard.

◆ InitFromPose()

virtual void EMotionFX::MorphTarget::InitFromPose	(	bool	captureTransforms,
		Actor *	neutralPose,
		Actor *	targetPose
	)

pure virtual

Initializes this expresion part from a given actor representing the pose. The morph target will filter out all data which is changed compared to the base pose and store this information on a specific way so it can be used to accumulate multiple morph targets together and apply them to the actor to which this morph target is attached to.

Parameters

captureTransforms	Set this to true if you want this morph target to capture rigid transformations (changes in pos/rot/scale).
neutralPose	The actor that contains the neutral pose.
targetPose	The actor representing the pose of the character when the weight value would equal 1.

Implemented in EMotionFX::MorphTargetStandard.

◆ Scale()

virtual void EMotionFX::MorphTarget::Scale ( float scaleFactor )

pure virtual

Scale all transform and positional data. This is a very slow operation and is used to convert between different unit systems (cm, meters, etc).

Parameters

scaleFactor The scale factor to scale the current data by.

Implemented in EMotionFX::MorphTargetStandard.

◆ SetName()

void EMotionFX::MorphTarget::SetName ( const char * name )

Change the name of the morph target. This will also automatically update the ID, which is returned by GetID().

Parameters

name	The new name of the morph target.

◆ SetPhonemeSets()

void EMotionFX::MorphTarget::SetPhonemeSets ( EPhonemeSet phonemeSets )

Set the phoneme sets. This is used for lipsync generation. It allows us to link the visual representation of a phoneme with one detected in the audio file/stream.

Parameters

phonemeSets The phoneme sets that this phoneme represents. This can be a combination of any of the phoneme sets in the enum.

◆ SetRangeMax()

void EMotionFX::MorphTarget::SetRangeMax ( float rangeMax )

Set the maximum weight range value of this morph target. On default this value is one. For more information about what exactly this 'range' is, see the method SetRangeMin().

Parameters

rangeMax The maximum weight value.

See also: SetRangeMin

◆ SetRangeMin()

void EMotionFX::MorphTarget::SetRangeMin ( float rangeMin )

Set the minimum weight range value of this morph target. On default this value is zero. The equations used are: new = current + delta * weight. Delta is the difference between the original pose and the pose passed to InitFromPose or the extended constructor. This means that normally the value for weight has a range of [0..1]. However, this can be changed. The range is used inside LM Studio only.

Parameters

rangeMin The minimum weight value.
