D3DXCreateMeshFVF Function

Creates a mesh object using a flexible vertex format (FVF) code.

Syntax

HRESULT D3DXCreateMeshFVF(      

    DWORD NumFaces,
    DWORD NumVertices,
    DWORD Options,
    DWORD FVF,
    LPDIRECT3DDEVICE9 pDevice,
    LPD3DXMESH *ppMesh
);

Parameters

NumFaces
[in] Number of faces for the mesh. The valid range for this number is greater than 0, and one less than the max DWORD value, typically 2³²-1, because the last index is reserved.
NumVertices
[in] Number of vertices for the mesh. This parameter must be greater than 0.
Options
[in] Combination of one or more flags from the D3DXMESH enumeration, specifying creation options for the mesh.
FVF
[in] Combination of D3DFVF that describes the vertex format for the returned mesh. This function does not support D3DFVF_XYZRHW.
pDevice
[in] Pointer to an IDirect3DDevice9 interface, the device object to be associated with the mesh.
ppMesh
[out] Address of a pointer to an ID3DXMesh interface, representing the created mesh object.

Return Value

If the function succeeds, the return value is D3D_OK.
If the function fails, the return value can be one of the following values.
D3DERR_INVALIDCALL The method call is invalid. For example, a method's parameter may have an invalid value.
E_OUTOFMEMORY Microsoft?Direct3D?could not allocate sufficient memory to complete the call.
