They're not that complicated. You have to set the url to the filename,
and I strongly recommend setting the volume to the bounding volume of
the underlying objects, otherwise culling will get pretty weird. And
that should be it. You can also set a replacement geometry to be
rendered while the real objects are loading (which can also be done in a
separate thread BTW), but that's optional. There are other variables for
statistics and load balancing, but you probably won't need them.
Hope I got it right. Any additions Marcus?
Dirk
