Definition

class ShaderMarker final : public Marker, public ListElement<ShaderMarker>

Constructor

ShaderMarker();

Description
The ShaderMarker class is used to specify a location in a world where rendering should be performed before gameplay starts for the purpose of pregenerating shaders. This helps avoid hesitations due to shaders being compiled when the camera enters a new area of a world. Multiple shader warmup markers can be placed in a world in order to cover all of the places where new lighting and fog environments would cause many shaders to be generated.
Base Classes
