Daggerfall Mod:DFRemake/Resource - RMGetFreeMeshID

DWORD RMGetFreeMeshID ( )Edit

InputsEdit

None

OutputsEdit

Returns the next available mesh ID. The ID is guaranteed to be valid and not currently in use.

DescriptionEdit

Use this function to obtain a free mesh ID used for mesh creation.

NotesEdit

The only way this function can fail to return a valid mesh ID is if all IDs are currently in use. Since mesh IDs range from 1000 to 1 million, this is unlikely to occur. Mesh IDs returned by this function start at 1000 leaving the lower IDs available for special purposes.

ExampleEdit

  Local NewID as DWORD

  NewID = RMGetFreeMeshID()
  Load Mesh "somefile.x", NewID
