OgreOde tutorials

http://www.ogre3d.org/wiki/index.php/Ogreode
It seems like most of the tutorials have disapeared (or maybe they were never there). If they were there can someone postt them back.

I am starting to use OgreOde. I have read the through the simplescene example.

For starters I want to place a stack of boxes, and knock them over via a projectile (ie from the crash demo).

I am using my own code, which is very similar to the example code. The problem is the boxes start tumbling down as if in a collison.

I've tried changing the sceneManger, time step, stepper, all to no avail. Ode doesnt like such large objects, so I tried scaling it down, but the boxes still react as if in a collison.

where
m_stepperPtr is a OgreOde::Stepper*
m_worldPtr is a OgreOde::World*
m_sceneManager=m_root->createSceneManager(Ogre::ST_GENERIC);

//in init
m_worldPtr = new OgreOde::World(m_ogreAppPtr->getSceneManager());
m_worldPtr->setGravity(Vector3(0,-9.80665,0));
m_worldPtr->setCFM(10e-5);
m_worldPtr->setERP(0.8);
m_worldPtr->setContactCorrectionVelocity(0.01);

m_stepperPtr = new OgreOde::ForwardFixedInterpolatedQuickStepper(0.01);
m_stepperPtr->setAutomatic(OgreOde::Stepper::AutoMode_NotAutomatic,m_ogreAppPtr->getRoot());
int q=0, j = 0;
for(int i=0; i<10; i++)
{
// for(int j=0; j<10; j++)
{
char tmp[245];
sprintf(tmp,"ack%d",q++);
Entity* box = m_sceneManager->createEntity(tmp,"crate.mesh");
box->setCastShadows(true);

SceneNode* node = m_sceneManager->getRootSceneNode()->createChildSceneNode(tmp);
node->attachObject(box);
//node->setScale(0.1,0.1,0.1);
Quaternion q;

Vector3 pos(390+j*10,i*10+.5,590);
node->setPosition(pos);
// node->setOrientation(Ogre::Quaternion::IDENTITY);
node->setScale(1,1,1);

// Create a box for ODE and attach it to the Ogre version
OgreOde::Body* body = new OgreOde::Body();
node->attachObject(body);
body->setMass(OgreOde::BoxMass(.5,Vector3(10,10,10)));

OgreOde::BoxGeometry* geom = new OgreOde::BoxGeometry(Vector3(10,10,10),
m_worldPtr->getDefaultSpace());
geom->setBody(body);
}
}
m_worldPtr->setCollisionListener(this);
m_stepperPtr->setStepListener(this);


//in frameEnded
if(m_stepperPtr->step(dt))
m_worldPtr->synchronise();


//in collision
if (g1 && g2)
{
const OgreOde::Body * const b1 = g1->getBody();
const OgreOde::Body * const b2 = g2->getBody();
if (b1 && b2 && OgreOde::Joint::areConnected(b1, b2))
return false;
}
contact->setCoulombFriction(OgreOde::Utility::Infinity);
return true;


Hopefully theres something dumb I am forgetting to do.

I am also very anxious to sink my teeth into the tutorials, but they seem to be experiencing technical difficulties

Can anyone please reupload them?

I believe they are just not ready, seems to me like nobody has written them yet

Tutorial never been done, just planned.

Check on ODE mailing list and ODE Wiki to get many, many information that applies also to OgreODE.
