[ODE] Graphics engine

[Anders Backman]

I would recommend OpenSceneGraph, it's a really good, stable scenegraph.
Integrating ode into it is easy.

The issue is the production pipeline.
But if you are only interested in getting high performance graphics
ontop of OpenGL + learn some C++ engineering, then OpenSceneGraph is the
one.
