I would like to use a model of something that is interesting to two groups: 1. People that need this type of support for rendering very large models. ie. simulation and sci viz people. For example the type of user that may want to visualize a simulation of the sun or a simulation of an explosion. 2. Readers of opengl.org, slashdot, and digg. Rendering a huge model of something interesting could generate quite a bit of interest. We could generate a fractal terrain to render but I think people will just say "why are you rendering it brute force". Similarly we could generate a forest of trees or something like that but people may ask why we just don't use level of detail code. That said, if anyone has code for generating vegetation in OpenSG it could be very interesting to see. See http://www.vterrain.org/Plants/index.html for more details on this area. SpeedTree is used quite a bit with game engines and I think the early papers about it are public, I just can't find them right now. Does anyone know of a good simulation equation that can generate lots of data and is relatively interesting? Please let me know if you have any ideas. -Allen > Cheers, > /Marcus > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Using Tomcat but need to do more?
