Re: [osg-users] Camera Manipulator or culling behavior change 3.1.2 vs 3.1.6
Hi Judson. I have refactored the Viewer/CompositeViewer::checkNeedToDo() method so that it now calls a new Viewer/CompositeViewer::checkEvents() method that checks for available events rather than rely upon the more heavier weight eventTraversals() method. The eventTraversals() method design is focused on being done as part of a full frame and was hacked to work in the case of run or demand but didn't handle me moving the frame() event generation into. There are good reasons to move frame() event, but not so good reasons to do a full event traversal as a means for checking whether a full frame is needed or not. The introduction of the checkEvents() method required quite a few changes in other classes to support it, fingers crossed I haven't broken the build in the process of making these changes, unfortunately I can't test out OSX, iOS, Windows builds so will have rely upon the community to test of these changes that I had to make to the platform specific GraphicsWindow implementations. I have now checked in my changes to svn/trunk, could you test them out and let me know if things are working OK now.

Re: [osg-users] How to apply textures to a model in openscenegraph?
If you have a need to actually change the flt file itself to change it to use dds textures, you can write something using the openFLT API. I actually just very recently did this myself. We had several hundred models we were converting to use dds instead of rgb files. The samples given with the API and the documentation should be good enough if you go that route. Look at the egwalk example to figure out how to drill down the structure. To actually change the name you will need to use the mgGetFirstTexture, mgGetTextureSaveName, and mgGetNextTexture.

Thanks for the pointer. I've had a look through the submissions associated with Android and merge one, but for the Uniform.cpp submission I've decided to try out a simpler solution - move the static's from global scope into th Uniform::getNameID() method and then use the OSG_INIT_SINGLETON_PROXY to force a call to the getNameID() method. I used this approach as I keeps the code simple without needing to create another singleton class simply to get around this platform specific issue. The code now looks like: unsigned int Uniform::getNameID(const std::string& name) { typedef std::map UniformNameIDMap; static OpenThreads::Mutex s_mutex_uniformNameIDMap; static UniformNameIDMap s_uniformNameIDMap; OpenThreads::ScopedLock lock(s_mutex_uniformNameIDMap); UniformNameIDMap::iterator it = s_uniformNameIDMap.find(name); if (it != s_uniformNameIDMap.end()) { return it->second; } unsigned int id = s_uniformNameIDMap.size(); s_uniformNameIDMap.insert(UniformNameIDMap::value_type(name, id)); return id; } // Use a proxy to force the initialization of the static variables in the Unifrom::getNameID() method during static initialization OSG_INIT_SINGLETON_PROXY(UniformNameIDStaticInitializationProxy, Uniform::getNameID(std::string())) This change is now checked into svn/trunk. Could you test it out and let me know if there is any remaining problems?

[osg-users] 57 days till Siggraph 2013 [60 days till Openscenegraph BOF] and release of osgDisneyland
57 days - So says the Siggraph website 60 days - says the advanced program for BOF's. Good inexpensive hotels are still available. Option 1 for release of osgDisneyland 1) Print the tee shirt 2) Announce osgDisneyland 3) Deliver in 2014 Note: This is similar to the Jello Equation paper accepted at a previous SIGGRAPH and actually published in the paper proceedings. OR [BETTER OPTION] Option 2 for release of osgDisneyland 1) Create Graphics for ride 2) Make it spin or whatever 3) Show it off at the BOF Note: Feel free to include a mesh of your face on the front of the ride. J PLAN B 1) Just have oodles [American slang for many] of OSG researchers give really amazingly fantastic cool lectures on how absolutely totally massively useful OSG is at the BOF 2) Three 20 minute slots or four 15 minute slots or five 12 minute slots or combinations of the preceding Historical Note: PLAN B usually materializes 10 to 20 days before SIGGRAPH when people finally get their travel plans solidified.

Re: [osg-users] How to apply textures to a model in openscenegraph?
You don't even need to use the openflight api (is it freelebly available?). Go download the OpenFlight spec from the Presagis website (it is free) and write something that will change the texture name in the openflight texture palette. If you are after using dds instead of rgb you change only the extension in the palette. I have done this several times.

[osg-users] Any recent work on CIGI interfaces to OSG?
Hi, I'm new to OSG, coming in from the direction of FlightGear, but I'm here primarily because I am interested in implementing a CIGI interface to FlightGear, and would like to put as much of this work as possible into an OSG module in order to make it useful to the larger OSG community and not only FlightGear developers. I have read the conversations about doing this from several years ago, but have not found any recent discussion or located any available code drops. I have downloaded the MPV example from CIGI at sourceforge, which is based on OSG, and that is quite helpful, but I wanted to introduce myself here and see if anyone can catch me up on any other existing work in this direction, or give me advice about where to start. Much of the CIGI interface is dedicated to higher order simulation functions (ie celestial bodies, ocean conditions, aircraft controls) which are probably too specific to implement at the OSG layer, but I'd like to make at least a virtual wrapper in OSG which could be inherited by FlightGear and other OSG based projects, each of which could determine on its own which functions to support, and how to support them. Any pointers would be welcome. I am applying for funding for this project in one week, so the more information I can gather before then the better. Thanks for all your efforts!
