GL_GENERATE_MIPMAP_SGIS is very slow (over half a second for a 720*576
texture). However, glGenerateMipmapEXT() performs well (16ms for the
same texture), so I have modified the attached files to use
Texture::generateMipmap() if glGenerateMipmapEXT is supported, instead
of enabling & disabling GL_GENERATE_MIPMAP_SGIS."
Notes, from Robert Osfield, I've tested the out of the previous path using
GL_GENERATE_MIPMAP_SGIS and non power of two textures on NVidia 7800GT and
Nvidia linux drivers with the image size 720x576 and only get compile times
of 56ms, so the above half second speed looks to be a driver bug. With
Muchael's changes the cost goes done to less than 5ms, so it's certainly
an effective change, even given that Michael's poor expereiences with
GL_GENERATE_MIP_SGIS do look to be a driver bug.
now holds the dirty flag and enables/disables event traversal in response dirty
being set/unset. This allows terrain to be automatically updated in response
to Terrain scale and sample ratio changes.
- Solves issues of loading image data into the texture memory
- Print a warning if images are of different dimensions or have different internal formats (GL specification requires images to be the same)
Patch is tested and seems to work fine. It shouldn't break any other functionality. It should go into include/osg and src/osg

multi-threaded paging, where the Pager manages threads of reading local
and http files via seperate threads. This makes it possible to smoothly
browse large databases where parts of the data are locally cached while
others are on a remote server. Previously with this type of dataset
the pager would stall all paging while http requests were being served,
even when parts of the models are still loadable virtue of being in the
local cache.
Also as part of the refactoring the DatabaseRequest are now stored in the
ProxyNode/PagedLOD nodes to facilitate quite updating in the cull traversal,
with the new code avoiding mutex locks and searches. Previous on big
databases the overhead involved in make database requests could accumulate
to a point where it'd cause the cull traversal to break frame. The overhead
now is negligable.
Finally OSG_FILE_CACHE support has been moved from the curl plugin into
the DatabasePager. Eventually this functionality will be moved out into
osgDB for more general usage.
ReaderWriter::ReadResult now has a FILE_REQUEST enum.
ReaderWriter::Options now has a s/getAsynchronousFileReadHint() parameter methods.
libcurl based plugin now detects enabing of the AsynchronousFileReadHint, but
as yet does not handle async requests - handling everything syncronously.
DatabasePager now by default will enable AsynchronousFileReadHint for http
based file requests
avoid threading issues associated with compile running in a parallel with
update/cull on the first frame.
Also added automatic recompile when a new SceneData is applied to a View.
get an excess Tab key report when switching back to an OSG
application (usually FlightGear :-). Although KDE has consumed
the Tab, it's sometimes still in the XKeymapEvent's key_vector,
and followed by a Tab KeyRelease event.
Avoid this artifact by
- asking for a "fresh" keymap (via XQueryKeymap()), rather than
using the unreliable(?) XKeymapEvent's key_vector, and by
- flushing all key events on focus-in (to avoid the KeyRelease)
After Super-press, Tab-press, Super-release, Tab-release (note
the wrong release order!) I still get an extra Tab event. But
this is not surprising and not exactly wrong either. Also it's
hard to avoid, as we can't see what happened to the keyboard
before we regained focus.
Files changed:
src/osgViewer/GraphicsWindowX11.cpp
include/osgViewer/api/X11/GraphicsWindowX11"
It's implemented in the same way that 3D Spherical Display and Panoramic Spherical Display.
You can test it running:
osgviewer --wowvx-20 cow.osg
osgviewer --wowvx-42 cow.osg
depending on the size of your Philips WOWvx display (20" or 42")
Other arguments you can use to control the 3D effect are:
--wow-content <value>
This value defines the kind of content that can be:
0: No depth
1: Signage
2: Movie
3: CGI
4: Still
--wow-factor <value>
Percentage of the display recommended depth value. Default 64, Range [0-255]
--wow-offset <value>
Amount of range behind the screen. Default 128, Range [0-255]
0: Range is shifted in the direction of the viewer.
128: Range is equally divided in front and behind the screen.
255: Range is shifted away from the viewer.
