Currently I am making lots of tricks to get it work... :) But it was a must have feature for us, we really needed to build texture databases and terrain ones separately, then be able to mix them by putting any number of texture layers on any terrain. We also developed some techniques of procedural terrain generation to be able to use textures layers more precise than the terrain (with more levels of details). So our implementation is really specific to our needs and I don't think it will be useful for anyone else, we even use a specific tool to build our databases (we don't use VPB), because we also needed to be able to build the databases into "real" databases (like pgSQL, Oracle, MySQL, SQLite...). But my goal is to see all these features into VPB/OSG and drop our tool for VPB. As soon as I have some free time I'll try to use it and maybe suggest some features... :) -- Serge Lages http://www.tharsis-software.com
