Hi Art,

Have you had any luck with this? I reported a similar problem a while
back, but still haven't been able to figure out what is wrong. When I
reverted to an older nVidia driver the problem went away. I also tried
with older OSG versions, and it didn't seem to make any difference. So
either the newer nVidia drivers have a bug, or there is some OSG bug
that is only surfacing with the latest drivers. Out of 6 computers I
tested on, 3 exhibited this problem. I've spent a lot of time on this
issue with no luck. I'm interested to see how far you have gotten with
this issue.

Cheers,

Farshid

Hi, Robert!

Today I have tested it also on another machine and it seems to have the same
problems. FBO is supported by every GeForce card cause it is implemented in
the software driver and not in hardware (it is just another memory mapping
approach) I have GeForce 6800 with 128MB and the machine where I tested it
today was GeForce 7900 GTX with 512MB. I do not know anymore what driver it
was on the 7900 machine.

The problem seems to be similar that I have had for a long time ago with my
own renderer. There I forgott to unbind FBO and the texture which is attached
to it. The rendering was fine, cause the right FBO was switched on to the
right time, but they were not switched off. After some frames the switching
of fbos was terrible slow (~200ms until 1s).

So the problem in the cubemap seems to look very similar to that one. If I get
enough time, I will check what is wrong with osg when it renders to cubemap
by using FBOs, but for now the bug/problem is still open.

MfG, Art
