Hi Adrian,
I have experienced a similar problem.
First, check that you set a decent radius for the Ephemeris dome. Example: 5000
meters...
Ensure that your far-clip is at least that far away.
Ephemeris can be set to follow camera.
If you do not set this then you must have camera inside the Ephemeris dome.
If you set it to follow camera, then you are supposed to see it all the time.
I did however get into a struggle with it where the dome disappeared at
seemingly random times.
It depended on where my camera was and the radius of the Ephemeris dome.
I learnt that if the Ephemeris dome radius was low (5000meters) then it would
often pop away (as in not visible) when I moved my camera away from world
centre. The problem increased the further away I went. At 10000meters from the
world centre I would almost never see the Ephemeris dome.
Ephemeris was in fact following my camera, but it does this in a special way.
It actually 'update' its position after culling is almost done. So at times it
may be culled even though you say it shall follow camera.
The solution was to write a node-visitor that turns off culling for Ephemeris's
root node and all of its child nodes.
I am not sure if this is the same problem as you have but you can try it.
Node visitor's apply function looks like this:
void DisableCullingVisitor::apply( osg::Node& node )
{
node.setCullingActive( false );
traverse( node );
}
Ensure that it is set up to traverse all children.
Hope it helps,
Viggo
