Methods

render(camera, scene, dt [, renderTarget])

Renders the scene through a camera. It's not recommended changing render targets if they have different sizes (so splitscreen should be fine). Otherwise, use different renderer instances.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
camera

The Camera from which to view the scene.
scene

The Scene to render.
dt

The milliseconds passed since last frame.
renderTarget <optional>

An optional FrameBuffer object to render to.
