I've used it. It's an OO scene graph generator. Its primary value is from a conceptual perspective as it allows you to work with objects instead of their surfaces (a compleatly illogical way to view the world.) It was quite slow compared to raw OpenGL as you would expect, though that may have been partialy due to serious resource limitations on the Indy2's we were using it on. -- Brooks -- Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
