I managed to restore the spherical billboards ( lights on planes, bridges and masts ) in my local copy, but not the axial one ( trees or radio mast at distance ). So I am still holding the code. I guess the AutoTransform class is not able to do axial billboarding, and OSG billboards are objects, not transforms, so I want to change that to a custom MatrixTransform, and steal the code from plib ssgCutout class, with the required axis swap. -Fred -- Frédéric Bouvier http://frfoto.free.fr Photo gallery - album photo http://www.fotolia.fr/p/2278/partner/2278 Other photo gallery http://fgsd.sourceforge.net/ FlightGear Scenery Designer ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
