<p>This article summarizes the work we did to produce the first two
cross-platform OpenSceneGraph examples.</p>
<p>By the time <a href="http://opengamestudio.org/mahjong-techdemo1-gameplay.html">the first technology demonstration of OGS Mahjong 2</a>
has been released, we've already had <a href="https://github.com/OGStudio/openscenegraph-cross-platform-guide/issues/4">issue request</a>
(to explain how to load images with OpenSceneGraph on Android) hanging for some
time. We considered creating a new tutorial for
<a href="https://github.com/OGStudio/openscenegraph-cross-platform-guide">OpenSceneGraph cross-platform guide</a> at first. However, we realized
that it's time-consuming and excessive for such a tiny topic (compared to
what an average game has) as image loading. We decided to continue sharing our
knowledge in the form of concrete examples. That's how
<a href="https://github.com/OGStudio/openscenegraph-cross-platform-examples">OpenSceneGraph cross-platform examples</a> were born.</p>
<p>Each example:</p>
<ul>
<li>explains crucial code necessary to perform a specific task</li>
<li>accents platform-specific nuances</li>
<li>provides implementations to cover desktop, mobile, and web platforms</li>
<li>provides a web build to showcase results</li>
</ul>
<p>The first two examples cover the following topics:</p>
<ul>
<li>Embed resource into executable: this greatly simplifies resource handling across platforms</li>
<li>Use PNG images with PNG plugins: this explains the requirements necessary to build and use PNG plugins</li>
</ul>
<p>We will be adding new examples as we proceed with OGS Mahjong 2 development.</p>
<p>That's it for summarizing the work we did to produce the first two cross-platform OpenSceneGraph examples.</p>
