121    @remarks
122                This class defines the interface and the basic behaviour of a
123                'Scene Manager'. A SceneManager organises the culling and rendering of
124                the scene, in conjunction with the RenderQueue. This class is designed
125                to be extended through subclassing in order to provide more specialised
126                scene organisation structures for particular needs. The default
127                SceneManager culls based on a hierarchy of node bounding boxes, other
128                implementations can use an octree (@see OctreeSceneManager), a BSP
129                tree (@see BspSceneManager), and many other options. New SceneManager
130                implementations can be added at runtime by plugins, see
131                SceneManagerEnumerator for the interfaces for adding new SceneManager
132                types.
133        @par
134                There is a distinction between 'objects' (which subclass MovableObject,
135                and are movable, discrete objects in the world), and 'world geometry',
136                which is large, generally static geometry. World geometry tends to
137                influence the SceneManager organisational structure (e.g. lots of indoor
138                static geometry might result in a spatial tree structure) and as such
139                world geometry is generally tied to a given SceneManager implementation,
140                whilst MovableObject instances can be used with any SceneManager.
141                Subclasses are free to define world geometry however they please.
142        @par
143                Multiple SceneManager instances can exist at one time, each one with
144                a distinct scene. Which SceneManager is used to render a scene is
145                dependent on the Camera, which will always call back the SceneManager
146                which created it to render the scene.

1587        /** Creates an animation which can be used to animate scene nodes.
1588        @remarks
1589            An animation is a collection of 'tracks' which over time change the position / orientation
1590            of Node objects. In this case, the animation will likely have tracks to modify the position
1591            / orientation of SceneNode objects, e.g. to make objects move along a path.
1592        @par
1593            You don't need to use an Animation object to move objects around - you can do it yourself
1594            using the methods of the Node in your FrameListener class. However, when you need relatively
1595            complex scripted animation, this is the class to use since it will interpolate between
1596            keyframes for you and generally make the whole process easier to manage.
1597        @par
1598            A single animation can affect multiple Node objects (each AnimationTrack affects a single Node).
1599            In addition, through animation blending a single Node can be affected by multiple animations,
1600            athough this is more useful when performing skeletal animation (see Skeleton::createAnimation).
1601        @par
1602            Note that whilst it uses the same classes, the animations created here are kept separate from the
1603            skeletal animations of meshes (each Skeleton owns those animations).
1604        @param name The name of the animation, must be unique within this SceneManager.

1630            createAnimation method. However, in order to actually apply those animations
1631            you have to call methods on Node and Animation in a particular order (namely
1632            Node::resetToInitialState and Animation::apply). To make this easier and to
1633            help track the current time position of animations, the AnimationState object
1634            is provided. </p>
1635            So if you don't want to control animation application manually, call this method,
1636            update the returned object as you like every frame and let SceneManager apply
1637            the animation state for you.

1643            reset to it's initial position before application of the animation. Unless specifically
1644            modified using Node::setInitialState the Node assumes it's initial state is at the

1895            draw very long, extreme shadows without loss of precision and the 'additive'
1896            version can correctly show the shadowing of complex effects like bump mapping
1897            because they physically exclude the light from those areas. However, the edges
1898            are very sharp and stencils cannot handle transparency, and they involve a
1899            fair amount of CPU work in order to calculate the shadow volumes, especially
1900            when animated objects are involved.</li>
1901            <li>Texture-based approaches are good for handling transparency (they can, for
1902            example, correctly shadow a mesh which uses alpha to represent holes), and they
1903            require little CPU overhead, and can happily shadow geometry which is deformed
1904            by a vertex program, unlike stencil shadows. However, they have a fixed precision
1905            which can introduce 'jaggies' at long range and have fillrate issues of their own.</li>
1906            </ul>
1907        @par
1908            We support 2 kinds of stencil shadows, and 2 kinds of texture-based shadows, and one
1909            simple decal approach. The 2 stencil approaches differ in the amount of multipass work
1910            that is required - the modulative approach simply 'darkens' areas in shadow after the
1911            main render, which is the least expensive, whilst the additive approach has to perform
1912            a render per light and adds the cumulative effect, whcih is more expensive but more
1913            accurate. The texture based shadows both work in roughly the same way, the only difference is
1914            that the shadowmap approach is slightly more accurate, but requires a more recent

2148                @remarks
2149                        Stencil shadow coherency is very reliant on the shadow volume
2150                        not being clipped by the far plane. If this clipping happens, you
2151                        get a kind of 'negative' shadow effect. The best way to achieve
2152                        coherency is to move the far plane of the camera out to infinity,
2153                        thus preventing the far plane from clipping the shadow volumes.
2154                        When combined with vertex program extrusion of the volume to
2155                        infinity, which Ogre does when available, this results in very
2156                        robust shadow volumes. For this reason, when you enable stencil
2157                        shadows, Ogre automatically changes your camera settings to
2158                        project to infinity if the card supports it. You can disable this
2159                        behaviour if you like by calling this method; although you can
2160                        never enable infinite projection if the card does not support it.
2161                @par   
2162                        If you disable infinite projection, or it is not available,
2163                        you need to be far more careful with your light attenuation /
2164                        directional light extrusion distances to avoid clipping artefacts
2165                        at the far plane.
2166                @note
2167                        Recent cards will generally support infinite far plane projection.
2168                        However, we have found some cases where they do not, especially
2169                        on Direct3D. There is no standard capability we can check to
2170                        validate this, so we use some heuristics based on experience:
2171                        <UL>
2172                        <LI>OpenGL always seems to support it no matter what the card</LI>
2173                        <LI>Direct3D on non-vertex program capable systems (including
2174                        vertex program capable cards on Direct3D7) does not
2175                        support it</LI>
2176                        <LI>Direct3D on GeForce3 and GeForce4 Ti does not seem to support
2177                        infinite projection<LI>
2178                        </UL>
2179                        Therefore in the RenderSystem implementation, we may veto the use
2180                        of an infinite far plane based on these heuristics.
