This is a tutorial for getting OpenSceneGraph 3.0.1 *and* the Microsoft Kinect working together with Visual Studio 2010.

Prerequisites:

First, you'll need Visual C++ 2010, which can be downloaded here.

You'll also need the latest version of Microsoft's Kinect SDK, which can be found here.

OpenSceneGraph Installation Instructions

Please follow the instructions listed on this website.

Right-click the Visual Studio 2010 Project and click Properties.

•Under C/C++ > Additional Include Directories, add "$(KINECTSDK10_DIR)\include".

•Under Linker > Additional Library Directories, add "$(KINECTSDK10_DIR)\lib\x86".

•Under Linker > Input > Additional Dependencies, add "kinect10.lib".

Note* : depending on where and when you installed the Kinect SDK, the names of the files and file paths above may differ,

so please double-check that all letters match *your* files and file paths. (i.e. you may need to capitalize the K in kinect10.lib -> Kinect10.lib).

If obj files are taking more than a minute to load, consider converting them to osgt format.

Once you have osg installed, in the command prompt, go to the directory type osgconv *.obj *.osgt,

where * is the name of the file, (example usage: osgconv campus.obj campus.osgt)
