collision

everything works except for one problem, my collision object isnt big enough, it stops at a certain point

hmm... do you have optimization turned on for the TreeCollision?

optimization is false,
but for a strange reasen today its fine, and i didnt change anything ..

is it important to set optimization true ??

no, I have had mor luck with false...

having the same problem since I updated Ogre/OgreNew/Newton
TreeCol doesn't work anymore!! :(

newton: 1.52
ogre: 1.2.0RC2 SDK for Visual C++ .Net 2005 (8.0)
ogrenew: http://walaber.com/misc/OgreNewt.rar

That is really weird. I had the same problem and I just turned optimizations false. It worked for me. Maybe try increasing your World Size.

now the problem is there again, and i didnt change optimization (false) and the world size

sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt very strange, can someone give an explanation ???

world size is not the cause of the problem!

This weekend I will update my Ogre copy to RC12 and perform some tests to make sure everything at least works on my end.

thx walaber

If you need a level where treecol works on the old version but not on the new version:

http://www.dwimmo.be/level11.rar = 1 mesh + materials

did anybody find what the problem is?
heeeeelp

again the same problem...

please hold on for a bit, I have finally got the debugger working under Dagon, so I will be removing all of the Line3D stuff from OgreNewt in the next few days... that way we can eliminate any trouble related to the debugger...

I found the cause, very strange!

in createscene() I load my mesh, I do treecol... :
The code


if (levID==9) {
beginPositieRolstoel = Ogre::Vector3(99.5*schaalfactor,300*schaalfactor,43*schaalfactor);
beginOrientatieRolstoel = beginOrientatieRolstoel*Ogre::Quaternion(Ogre::Degree(90), Ogre::Vector3::UNIT_Y);

Entity* level9Entity = mSceneMgr->createEntity("Level9", "level9.mesh");
SceneNode* level9SceneNode = mSceneMgr->getRootSceneNode()->createChildSceneNode("Level9");
level9SceneNode->attachObject(level9Entity);

OgreNewt::Collision* level9Col = new OgreNewt::CollisionPrimitives::TreeCollision(m_World, level9SceneNode, optimalisatieTreeCollision);
OgreNewt::Body* level9Body = new OgreNewt::Body(m_World, level9Col);
delete level9Col;
level9Body->attachToNode(level9SceneNode);

//voor wrijving & botsingen
level9Body->setMaterialGroupID(matIDLevel);
}


but if I change the if statement with a method: f.e. loadLevel() - with the same code as above in it - and put loadLevel() in creatscene the collision problem occurs (only part of the mesh gets treecoll instead of the whole level) very very strange

so now I changed all the methods with if() {...}
not very nice coding but it works

the next problem is: well see my next post
