In general OpenSG does try to load animations from collada files, however, it is possible that some tweaks are required in order to support the way a specific tool represents animations in a collada file. IIRC, the information should be stored in an attachment on the root node of a scene. You can take a look at Examples/Advanced/Character/character.cpp:initAnimationsEnterFunc, which uses OGRE files, but should otherwise be quite similar. > Shadows: > I have a scene where I use the SimpleShadowmapEngine (without deferred > shading), but it doesnt play nice with cluster application (only black > artifacts everywhere), where should I start looking?

Hmm, I don't think SimpleShadowMapEngine requires additional libs and if it did I'd expect it to crash rather than produce wrong images without those libs. Black (blocky) artefacts are sometimes a sign of incorrect bounding boxes (since these are used to find the projection needed to render the scene from the light source's point-of-view). If bounding boxes on the cluster nodes are correct it might be helpful to run the nodes under an OpenGL debugger in order to look at the shadow map textures generated by the SSME.
