Hi Sean, osg::Geometry provides an automatic VBO setup for you when you setUseVertexBufferObjects(true), but this is only done on a per Geometry basis, the code assumes that there is just one geometry in play.
If you want to use assign VBO's to Array's individually then you'll need to assign the VBO's to the Array's yourself. Robert.
