Hi Zach,

Jiminy cricket!  Disabling hardware anti-aliasing does get rid of the

Does anybody know if anti-aliasing setup changed somewhere?

The core OSG has little to do with the anti-aliasing options you've
selected, it just renders to the graphics context you've set up.

From the profile of the problem It is unlikely that there is any
specific OSG related with this problem, the fact that it got worse
with 1.2 is likely down to oddities in the driver, either a
sensitivity in thread timing, or memory usage that just happens to
cause problems.

This isn't the first time we've seen problems with recent win32 NVidia
drivers and OSG usage, the last one was related to non Producer based
apps crashing with the Nvidia drivers, again this just so happen to
not appear to be a problem under 1.0, but was a problem under 1.2, but
pretty well everything that the OSG was sending to the OpenGL was
identical.  We found a workaround to the driver bug by explictly
getting the extension string before any drawing occurred, this
workaround can be found in the CVS version of
src/osgUtil/SceneView.cpp.  The bug has been reported to NVidia.

Perhaps the problem you are seeing is related to the above, in which
case you could try the CVS version of the OSG and see if it helps.

Robert.
