Hi Vincent, You don't need to assign a node ptr, as you can set the filename against a child number that isn't yet loaded. i.e.
plod->setFileName(0, "firstlod.ive"); plod->setFileName(1, "secondlod.ive"); Typically I'd actually assign the first child as an straight subgraph that is loaded along with the PageLOD itself, then the second child (with index 1) is the one that is loaded on demand when the next up level of detail is required. This external subgraph which is stored on disk will typically contain a Group and four PageLOD, each of which will have it's first child already assigned as part of this external file, and then it's second child the external file reference. This is repeat until you have the desired level of detail for the high rest data you have. This approach creates a balanced quad tree that is perfect for real-time rendering. Robert.
