Hi, Mike 1) you can't load from QT resources via osg out of the box. You can write osgDB::ReadFileCallback (and register it via osgDB::Registry) which will open QFile from path specified, read data from it into stream and load object from that stream with correct osgDB plugins.
2) matrix transform should work ok... particle emitter and processors have reference frame and if it not set to absolute - should respect parent transforms. Check if you set correct rotation matrix.
