VSG only support read obj，etc. 3d moudel?

The core VulkanSceneGraph library just supports the native .vsgb (binary) and .vsgt (ascii text), .spv (SPIR-V shader) and the range of GLSL shader files (.vert, .frag etc.).

The vsgXchange companion library provides 3rd party image and model loaders, and the curl plugin for loading files from https/https. The full list of supported formats is listed on the vsgXchange's README.md. This list you can generate just be running 'vsgconv --features':

Hi. Is it possible to convert osgdem created osgb files to vsgb files by using vsgconv? Executing "vsgconv a.osgb a.vsgb" command prints "InputStream::readObject(): Unsupported wrapper class osgTerrain::Terrain".

[robertosfield]

vsgconv is capable of converting paged databases but the osg2vsg that it uses for OpenSceneGraph support is quite old now and needs a rewrite to leverage all the VSGs modern features, and to support a wider range of OSG features like osgTerrain.

I originally wrote osg2vsg in the first year of the VulkanSceneGraph project with the primarily goal of getting existing OpenSceneGraph databases into the VSG so I could do feature and performance testing. Once vsgXchange::assimp and the vsgXchange image loaders were introduced the need for osg2vsg for getting data into the VSG was lower so I have focused elsewhere in the VSG project as it's charged forward.

My plan has to be revisit osg2vsg but my client work had all focused on core VSG/vsgXchange development work rather than improving the art path route from OpenSceneGraph. Community work has also been focused on VSG/vsgXchange as well so osg2vsg has been left behind. For the short term this will likely remain the case as I have so much core VSG work to keep up with.

[serkano77]

I tried to compile pdconv but it is also quite old I think. One of your Youtube videos you mentioned that pdconv is used to convert OSG database. Anyway, thank you for clarifiying.

[robertosfield]

Those videos will be rather old, I've been so busy on the dev side that I haven't had time to record more.

What is your background? What are you trying to achieve?

The vsgTutorial is incomplete but worth looking at, and the vsgExamples is worth using as a resource.

[serkano77]

I am familiar with OSG and osgearth. I have some terrain databases created by Virtual Planet Builder. I want to render these databases in a simple viewer application. My aim is to learn VSG while developing simple viewer. Thank you for your help. I am gonna look at vsgExamples.
