15.4 was a good stable version of OFLT and both loaders IMHO need to be able to load 15.4, many older 3rd party tools write out 15.4
15.7 was another good stable OFLT version and again many tools write out this format. 15.5 and 5.6 were not so good OFLT version and if you have files in this format then there is a need to convert these to 15.7 or 15.8 We also have to realize is not quite as simple as telling some on to simply convert their open flight files, they many have thousands or tens of thousands of files, that may need to work in legacy code and API's e.g. Performer/Vega etc.. Also many may no have the latest Creator to convert to a newer version and doing thousand by hand is not really feasible ;( So IMO both loaders really need to support 15.4 / 15.7 and UP and do...

One issue is that there are many (50 or more) models. Using Creator is not really an option for all of those models. I'll see what the vendor can do. As to the CVS version of OSG, my only issue is that we are using Delta 3D as well, and have not spent the time to install it's build environment. Maybe I should look into that... ;) -B --- RSC BDC > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:osg-users- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Paul Martz > Sent: Tuesday, June 27, 2006 10:31 AM > To: 'osg users' > Subject: RE: [osg-users] Trying to load > flightfilesandgetting"Nonprimaryrecord found as child" > > 64 and 67 look like normal opcodes, Brad. > > Have you tried viewing these models in osgviewer, and if so, how do they > look? > > Another thing you could try is to compare how they look with the current > loader, against the new loader.
