Hello Jan,
okay, this might be something that we could use. I have only skimmed through the web page and the programming guide so maybe I missed something. The problem that I see is that maybe other functions which are provided by OpenSceneGraph are not supported by Equalizer (loading from different file formats, picking/dragging, animation pathes). Furthermore if we want to write our own rendering and composition algorithm what is left for Equalizer to do for us? I think the effort getting used to it and integrating it in our system would be too high in comparison to the earnings. But I will read the programming guide tomorrow and see if my first impression is wrong. > > Sometimes it is better to start from something working than from > scratch, even though it is tempting to reinvent the wheel (I am/was in > academia too). Yes that is right. That is why we want to use OpenSceneGraph. > > Just a suggestion, though. I am thankful for every serious suggestion.
