Hello Robert, Sorry for turning this into a troubleshooting thread. Bringing it back to osg-users instead of osg-submissions. But please integrate the code I sent yesterday when you have a chance. Thanks.

I fiddled a bit more with this while I was at the airport waiting for my plane
(I always wanted to say that! :)
It's only when outputting to an archive that the problem occurs. I have attached
the two scripts I use (which were created with osgdem <options> --so <file>),
but the only difference is the line:
ArchiveName "world_20k_10k_4.osga"
Without that line, the result is what you would expect (an .ive file with all
the subtiles, and it looks good in osgviewer). With that line, I get an .osga
file, but when it loads, the tiles directly in front of the viewer disappear
and the ones behind page in, until I'm left with a hemisphere of the "back of
the Earth" that just stays like that no matter what the point of view is.
I'm also attaching the two log files for the runs of vpbmaster. Maybe something
there will give you a hint. At first glance, I think the run that created the
archive was way too fast... At least, much faster than the other, so that might
indicate a problem.
Note that I ran the two vpbmaster invocations in different directories so that
they did not interfere with each other, and did not use the same cache. Also,
the suffixes ("_noarchive" and "_archive") are just to differentiate the
attached files, they were named without those when I ran vpbmaster.
I can place the two resulting databases on my web server if you want (they're
not too big with just 4 levels). But if you can reproduce the problem on your
side, it might not be necessary.
Hope this helps. Thanks,
J-S
