Don't make me wrong :) I was only reffering to the 3D Clouds which are working with FG 1.0.0 that was the opportunity to say, it was a great improvement, and fortunately, since that know how is not lost, we can refer to it ( mainly for the visual result ), to me , the others competitors out of FG were not able to do better, i can be supporter :) I don't ask for a new FG PLIB version, i only have in mind the history of FG, and why PLib has been replaced by OSG => PLib is died OSG is on progress.
