Which callback to use for sphere-sphere contact ?

I'm still learning to use bullet, I've successfully used raycast using callback, but I have no idea which callback to use, I guess it is ClosestConvexResultCallback or ContactResultCallback but I don't understand the constructor parameters for the first and the latter is said to be used to report co...

Counter strike recoil feel

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGXijf32L1g I would like to have the same recoil-feel counter strike has. I'm currently focusing on the camera angle (the pitch, not the yaw) and not the bullet trajectories. I had some feedback and code from a cspromod dev who reverse engineered counter-strike behavio...

Re: what is the purpose of those methods ?

I managed to get collisions working without using those callbacks, so to be clear, in what situation would I need to use those callbacks and those 2 methods I asked above ? Are they useful to get some info about the concerned triangle ? I'm also doing some basic raycasting, I want to know the coordi...

[Feature request] method to provide collision object index

I made an Ogre3D application, and am using bullet only to detect collisions. I use a vector of objects in ogre, and fill the array in CollisionWorld::getCollisionObjectArray() with the corresponding index. For example if I have a certain ogre object in: Entities[45]; The corresponding bullet collisi...

what is the purpose of those methods ?

All I want is collisions between many object (no more than about 30), no dymamics. I'm currently using btOgre, and since I'm just using simple shapes like sphere and boxes, it doesn't bring a lot. I'm currently trying to understand this demo: http://code.google.com/p/bullet/source/browse/trunk/Demos...

Re: Bullet development updates

I tried to get Havok (the free version thing for indie devs), quite surprised to see that when the download started, it was a 1.1GB file at 20ko/s. Open source is still important to me, but still a physics is a ton of work... Everybody needs a little money to live :) Still I'm still eager to see the...

Simulate gun bullets with high speed collision misses

What is the proper way to simulate bullets ? I want those bullets to be not instantaneous, and since they are known to travel fast and have little if not punctual size, there can be collision misses. One single raycast will not be enough, should I raycast once per step to check if the bullet went th...

Re: Proper way of moving collision shapes

What is the purpose of this class in the demo, and its overidden method ? struct btDrawingResult : public btCollisionWorld::ContactResultCallback virtual btScalar addSingleResult(btManifoldPoint& cp, const btCollisionObject* colObj0,int partId0,int index0,const btCollisionObject* colObj1,int par...

Ogre3D and bullet: plain bullet or OgreBullet ?

Hello, I have an Ogre3D application, and all I need is collision detection. I need an honest opinion, I already managed to link bullet into my project, created a CollisionWorld, but I'm still a little lost... To begin I just want to detect collisions with simple btSphereShape. Should I use btOgre in...
