[osg-users] Two VirtualPlanetBuilder problems
I have a very large imagery set (~1 million files). When running VirtualPlanetBuilder 0.9.9, I am limited to about 482 -t imagery files for a given vpbmaster command before I get ERROR 4: Failed to open file /mp2/osg/file482.tif for each -t file listed after the 482nd file listed in the script and the *.ive files are not created. The command I am using is: vpbmaster --PagedLOD --geocentric --terrain -e 30.00 20.00 1.00 1.00 -o 30_20.ive Running with the -t option pointing to the directory results in the same error. What do I need to open up to allow more files to be processed per vpbmaster run? Secondly, a test of a small VPB database of 1.34GB of CADRG imagery produced 14.941GB of *.ive files using VPB 0.9.7 in 23 minutes time. The same test with VPB Version 0.9.9 produced 14.826GB of *.ive files in 32 minutes. I was not expecting the newer VPB to only produce a tiny (1%) amount of compression, while taking about 40% more time. Furthermore, I'm perplexed that my resulting output files are 11 times the input imagery (1m black and white Controlled Imagery Base). Using the --compressed option made no difference to the resulting *.ive sizes. I require all levels of detail, so expect some increase in database size, but can anybody help me reduce this to a smaller multiple as I'm running out of disk space! What do I need to do to turn on Heightfield compression, for example.

[osg-users] VPB 1.0 schedule and database size improvements
What is the latest projection of a VPB 1.0 stable release, and will it be tied to OSG 2.6.0 or a more recent OSG version? For various reasons, I can only build from the *zip files, and the latest on the website is VPB 0.9.7. I realize development is going strong now, but need to know for scheduling purposes for my apps. Also, has anybody tested how much smaller (or faster) the resulting *.ive files will be with heightfield compression (is there a significant reason to wait until 1.0 comes out to build multi-TB databases)?

Re: [osg-users] Link Open Flight statically (Kramer, Robert W)
Nobody responded to my earlier question three weeks ago, so I'm reposting: Can OpenFlight be linked statically? I compiled the osgstaticviewer and it does not read *.flt files. The osgviewer that uses the shared object version seems to work fine. I guess my question is--which plugins do I need to register in my application and which global variables need to be specified in order to link the openflt library statically? Any help is appreciated!

Re: [osg-users] osgdem and CADRG dateline holes
Aha. osgdem Version 1.2 I am downloading VirtualPlanetBuilder 0.9.1 to see if that fixes the problem. By the way, do you happen to know if there are any OSG training events come up? There isn't any useful information on the Virginia or Italy training courses at: http://opensourceretreat.com/courses/category/openscenegraph/ Thanks, -Robert Hi Robert, Which version of osgdem are you using?
