Thank you Robert, I know you are swamped of work and deliver for free a great service to the list, but I am afraid you don't need to teach me anything about quadtrees, I regularly work with quadtrees and octrees and implemented several of them. > There are lots of books and online resources on items like quad trees. > Lots in the archives too. > I looked in the archives through this web page: http://lists.openscenegraph.org/pipermail/osg-users-openscenegraph.org/ and there are exactly 0 results for "quadtree" and "quad-tree". My question was very clear, and it has to do a lot with OSG and a few with quadtrees but probably it was a misunderstanding. In your mail you said: "Also with your scene graph, make sure you build a quad tree to store all those billboards, and avoid large flat node contains lots of children/drawables". Did you mean, "OSG has a quadtree class somewhere, use it" or "implement your own quadtree scene graph management, integrate it with OSG culling mechanics, and put your billboards in it"?
