Hi J-S, Yes I can certainly put the code up on the svn. However, it wasn't actually written in situ but rather as simplified test case to make absolutely sure that the primitives arrangements were absolutely correct. But it does seem silly to have to hidden on my pc at home, when other people may

Hello All, Did somebody mention water effects?! I have recognised the CPU usage of osgOcean as a bit of a problem. This is due to the osgOcean using one huge vertex/normal array for all of the ocean tiles and then copying the vertices for each tile in on frame/position changes. It was a rather

Hi Dominic, I can't find the real worldz examples on the net, do you have the source? If that was part of the GLSL (orange) book, then check here: http://mew.cx/glsl/ Mike Weiblen (which is a member of this list) archived the 3DLabs GLSL stuff when it wasn't available from the 3DLabs site

Hi Kim, I have the code for all of this as a prototype, but I don't have the time to tidy it up and update library at the moment. If you are interested in making these modifications I would be more than happy to give you the code and walk you through it, otherwise it'll have to wait until I

Hi there is there a simple and good looking way to have water effects for the sea? How do you implement this? I don't know which way is the best, simple textures, normal mapping or shaders? What I would like to see is the sun reflecting the rays on the water ;-) Any help is welcome. I

Hi Dominic; As you know there is too much resource on the net. Some of them which I can advice you to look, http://habib.wikidot.com/ OrangeBook (aka GLSL Book) There is Real Worldz chapter which talk about rendering ocean in simple and not comprehensive way. http://www.vterrain.org/Water/ I

Hi Ümit thanks for the interesting links, but the habib tuturials are all for direct x, right? And I don't see how I have to integrate with OSG (sorry for the stupid questions, but I'm a beginer at all...). I can't find the real worldz examples on the net, do you have the source? Regards
