Yes, with xml, had bug with the z buffer No ,xml don't gives every feature which are available with OSG script, The result from FG xml script is very simple ( not far from we had with PLIB effects ). OSG script can be very complex with animations into animations regarding particles shapes, particles colors ... and so on. For instance, the effect does not need any texture which is processed randomly, according the OSG script. To me (and today) there is only one way to get the best nice effects (more realistic): => it is to use the OSG script, but if it will be fully translated to XML (which could give some "heavy" coding). So up to now, because OSG opened a wide door to many features, i guess that we must not reduce the size of that door :) Again, i agree with the common usage of it, like trailing smoke, or some dust on the wheel when touching the ground, however we can do more than we did with PLIB.
