Collision using world geometry

Hi, is there a way to use worldgeometry, I mean a terrain, in TreeCollision of ogrenewt?

Yep, look at the tree collisions class (and the tree serializer).

Hi OvermindDL1, thanks for your aswer, I had take a look on TreeSerializer, but I didn't understand many things. Also, I had look at some similar issues on this forum like:

http://www.ogre3d.org/phpBB2addons/viewtopic.php?t=591&highlight=treecollision

and

http://www.ogre3d.org/phpBB2addons/viewtopic.php?t=360&highlight=indexdata

But still I don't know exactly what to do. I had been trying to work with:

OgreNewt::Collision* mTerrain_col = new OgreNewt::CollisionPrimitives::TreeCollision(const World *world, int numVertices, Ogre::Vector3* vertices, Ogre::IndexData *indexData, bool optimize)

But I didn't know how to proced with this.

Could you tell me how to do it?

Thanks for help.

I've barely used the TreeCollision class, but it worked fine for me, and the serializer I have not yet touched, nothing has been big enough to need to touch yet, should wait till Walaber comes around.

Yes I have to say that the only thing preventing me from using Ogrenewt is the lack of support for tree collision on terrain created with Heightmap. I remember yesterday of browsing the main Ogre forum , and there is one guy who said that he managed to get the tree collision done on heightmap-based terrain, but it simply stops there. Let me see if I can recall the thread.

As I recall, there is a wiki entry for just that thing, have you not looked at it?

Shoot me, but I still didn't find the wiki which has the solution for the heightmap-based terrain collision. There is an example coming from Newton itself regarding the heighmap.. but it is not Ogre's heightmap - let see if I can understand it

there is definately a wiki entry in there somewhere.

Now the master has spoken, I will have to find it by hook or by crook

[Edit]I think I found it, but it is for PLSM2? I am using TerrainSceneManager.

yeah, it was for PLSM2... but since they are similar I think you could adapt it to work on the ogre default terrain scene manager...
