|
||||
|
||||
Build fixes for VisualStudio6.0.
|
||||
Fixes for osgFX registry support.
|
||||
Fixes to osg::Image::flipVertical() adding support for mipmaps and
|
||||
compressed textures.
|
||||
DDS plugin now can vertically flip images by using "flip" Options string.
|
||||
Added support in osgTerrain for reading imagery with color tables.

at all. A plugin is only needed if you need to load that specific file
|
||||
format,
|
||||
so it is not critical if you don't have all the required dependencies. <br>
|

<br>
|
||||
Under UNIX you can take advantage of flexibility in the build system
|
||||
that allows you to manually define the external dependencies that are
|
||||
installed on your system. To override the default dependencies
|
||||
copy the Make/dependencies file to a directory of choosing, and then
|
||||
point to this file by setting the OSG_DEPENDENCIES environmental
|
||||
variable to point to this file. Then edit this file to reflect
|
||||
which dependencies are present. i.e<br>
|
||||
<br>
|
||||
cd /home/osguser/OpenSceneGraph<br>
|
||||
cp Make/dependencies my_custom_osg_dependencies<br>
|
||||
export
|
||||
OSG_DEPENDENCIES=/home/osguser/OpenSceneGraph/my_custom_osg_dependencies<br>
|
||||
myfavorite-editor my_custom_osg_dependencies<br>
|
||||
<br>
|
||||
When editing the file, simple change the no to yes, and visa-versa
|
||||
where apporpriate.<br>
