Spark integration

[Xatpy]

First of all, great work! I want to integrate Spark particle. However, the link related ( http://spark.developpez.com/ ) doesn't work. I have downloaded version 1.5.5 from http://sourceforge.net/projects/sparkengine/ , but it has link errors. I am using Visual Studio 2010. I tried with 2008 libraries, and recompiling with VS2010, but no success. How can I integrate it with OSG? Thanks!

Could you show what the link errors you've encountered? The integrationworks with spark1 (the trunk of the Spark project) but I've never tested it with spark2 (which seems to be an experiment at present)

I am using http://sourceforge.net/projects/sparkengine/files/latest/download

The errors are:

--------- If I link with: SPARK_debug.lib and SPARK_GL_debug.lib:

What SDK should I use?

[Xatpy]

I solved it!

I linked with last version in Spark SVN (https://svn.code.sf.net/p/sparkengine/code/), using SPARK Engine CORE DLL.lib and SPARK Engine GL DLL.lib.

The problem were in:

• osgspark.cpp (line 50) ===> //SPK::randomSeed = static_cast( time(NULL) ); I had to comment this line.
• SparkDrawable.cpp ===> SPK::NO_ID not found. So, I replace SPK::NO_ID with 0 in: +++ SparkDrawable.h (line 60) bool isValid() const { return getBaseSystemID()!=SPK::NO_ID && _protoSystem!=NULL; } +++ SparkDrawable.cpp - Constructor (line 25) _baseSystemID(SPK::NO_ID)

Finally, I have Spark Engine working with OSG Smile

Thanks and well done Xatpy! :-) And sorry for the delay because of some client work.
