[osg-users] Black stains in my rendering?

[Robert Osfield]

Hi Antoine.

My best guess is that some of your normal, color or textcoord data is
corrupted in some way resulting in the black areas around some
vertices.

Now I am displaying a NURBS surface (well it is also seen as a mesh to OSG) which is the result of a points cloud fitting and I observe dirty black stains on the normally smooth grey surface that is drawn. You can observe them on the 1st image below.

The 2nd image below shows the normals are very clean.
