| SetBoxVerticesArray | SetBoxVerticesArray fills the PositionNormalTextureVertex array with position, normal and texture coordinates for the box with specified parameters. If the specified vertexBufferArray is null or its Length is not 24, then a new array of PositionNormalTextureVertex with 24 items is created. The method also sets the boundingBox of the positions. |
| SetPlaneVerticesArray | SetPlaneVerticesArray fills the PositionNormalTextureVertex array with position, normal and texture coordinates for the plane with specified parameters. If the specified verticesArray is null or its Length is not correct, then a new array of PositionNormalTextureVertex is created. The method also sets the boundingBox of the positions. |
