Bullet physics in casinos / pubs / clubs

Atlas Gaming are using Bullet Physics for simple effects in their slot machines (found in pubs/clubs/hotels/casinos in Australia): Typical uses will be: - a fountain of coins, with collision which react to players touch input - soft body collision (flags) which also react to players touch input We u...

btVector3.rotate()

Hi. I seem to have stumbled onto an error with btVector3, the rotate() function in LinearMath/btVector3.h line 493. I've stumbled onto this while trying to apply a directional impulse at a particular point. If I have a point (-2, -1, 0) which I want to rotate around an axis (eg. 0, 0, 1), there seem...

Re: Some collisions not working on 2.75

To avoid such problems, the optimizations has been disabled by default. Developers have to explicitly make a call to enable the optimization using ///enable optimization: only update the axis aligned bounding box of active objects world->setForceUpdateAllAabbs(false); An updated Bullet 2.75 will be...

My mistake. The two warnings were in the header file (btMultimaterialTriangleMeshShape.h).

Cheers.

2.75 (1756) warnings

Building bullet 2.75 for iPhone (3.1) has the following 6 warnings. Hey, we're converging in the right direction :) 1) BulletCollision/CollsisionShapes/btMultimaterialTriangleMeshShape.cpp line 40, unused variable m_triangle 2) BulletCollision/CollsisionShapes/btMultimaterialTriangleMeshShape.cpp li...

Warnings in 2.75 RC3

I'm using Bullet for my iPhone projects, and there are 20 warnings issued by GCC4.2. I'm posting them here hoping that someone will look into them (BTW the Static Analysis tools for Snow Leopard show no issues for Bullet - yay). Freetype, however ... 1) CollisionDispatch/btConvexConvexAlgorithm.cpp,...

Re: btHeightfieldTerrainShapes or equivalent approach

I'm rendering a 771x723 multitextured terrain and using Bullet physics on the iPhone, and I get around 45fps. Other than an occassional tunnelling effect where my fast moving objects penetrate terrain, performance of btHeightfieldTerrainShape on the iPhone is great.

Re: Compensating for Roll of btRigidBody

I have a similar problem (applying torque to change roll also changes the pitch in subsequent calls) which introduces instability in my object controller. I believe that I've identified the problem - the torque I'm calculating is object relative, while when calling btRigidBody::applyTorqueImpulse() ...

Re: btmatrix3x3: Difference between getEulerYPR and getEulerZYX

I'm using 2.75rc3, and they are different. getEulerYPR has 3 calculations and sign adjustment. getEulerZYX has additional code for singularity detection and gimbal locks. Since I'm new to Bullet, I didn't know which one to select, and tested both, and was suprised to see that they both returned the ...

btmatrix3x3: Difference between getEulerYPR and getEulerZYX

Hello. I'm relatively new to Bullet, and have found that these 2 methods (btMatrix3x3::getEulerYPR and btMatrix3x3::getEulerZYX) for my datasets produce the same results. I'm just curious as to why there are 2 methods which apparently do the same thing and end up with the exact same result. Cheers.

Re: apply impulse to btSoftBody

I made the classic blunder of trying to figure out why none of my forces acted on a falling object (I'm trying to get a helicopter to hover). Imagine my embarassment when I figured out that a force of (0,0,10) will do little to an object of mass 7,500km :) Newton must be rolling in his grave after I...
