In the process of allocating storage for transient geometry you first
need to invoke the "voVertexData" method. In the demo programs this
looks like this:

...

// Holds all intermediate PER_VERTEX information.
my_Data.allVertexData = new voVertexData(100000, valuesPerVtx);

my_Data.aPolygonSetArray = new
voIndexedFaceSet**[my_Data.maxBrickCount];
...

How do you determine the (exact) number of vertices? Is it safe to use a
static number like 100000 as in the demos or wouldn't it be better to
calculate the countMax of vertices according to number of bricks (or/and
other variables)? This problem relates also to Manfred's question about
the volumizer design and transient geometry. Isnt't there a way to make
the allocating of vertex information dynamically?

With best regards
