[osg-users] My own main loop witout viewer.run()

[Вячеслав]

Hi,

I learn osg now and want to use it for 3D-game. So the architecture based on viewer.run() can't be used.
In "OpenSceneGraph Quick Start Guide" about other approach was explained in a pretty general sense:

So how to use osg as a complement to OpenGL but without letting osg to control OpenGL (and my main loop) fully?
Any references will be helpful.

Thank you.
