[Opensg-users] OpenSG 2: client server communication and render action

[Victor Haefner]

Hi,

When changing options of the render action like frustum or occlusion
culling or even just using the statistics foreground will not work with
cluster servers.

I guess it is because the cluster server has its own render action.

Is there a way to sync the render actions?

Moreover, is there a way I can use the opensg communication between client
and server to pass my own stuff to the server? maybe attach something to
the root node?
If yes then I could also use that to change options for the server render
action.

Thanks for the help!

Best regards,
Victor

IIRC System/Window/Base/OSGRenderOptions should do that.

In past projects we have used something like the attached
NamedContainerAttachment attached to e.g. the root of the scene. It
stores a mapping string -> FieldContainer which allows looking up FC on
the server if you know its string key.
