Hello Glenn,
The view dependent-with-perspective-overlay uses a shader, I am already using a shader for my terrain(base geometry, osgearth). Secondly for VIEW_DEPENDENT_WITH_ORTHOGRAPHIC mode the projected texture resolution does not decrease(/projected area does not increase) even when the viewing direction is near parallel to terrain, it stretches 'only' at certain specific angles. Is there a way to use overlay if I am already using a shader on my base terrain?

As your angle of view gets less steep, the texture resolution appears to descrease since it has to cover a larger area. Try view-dependend-with-perspective-overlay, which helps with this issue. Also, increase the texture size hint in the OverlayNode api.

If you view the whole earth it obviously would not look good - too much detail to fit into the texture. What the view dependent modes try to do is this: When you zoom in, you only see a piece of the checkerboard, so now the 512x512 texture can contain only a piece of the checkerboard and so you see "more detail" of the overlayed geometry. I think this is the effect you are seeing when you are moving the view around. jp > > Regards > Vaibhav Bansal > > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of J.P. > Delport > Sent: Thursday, November 19, 2009 2:41 PM > To: OpenSceneGraph Users > Subject: Re: [osg-users] Using OsgSim Overlay > > Hi Vaibhav, > > Vaibhav Bansal wrote: >> Hello, >> >> I have added a geometry as an overlay over another geometry. >> The overlay texture seems to distort(stretch) under certain viewing > angles. >> It seems the projected texture is generating incorrect texture > coordinates. > > The texture coordinates might be OK, but the resolution of your > overlayed geometry might change in the generated overlayed texture.
