Real-Time Physics Simulation Forum

Oh, right. I forgot all about those real world forces that aren't generally simulated, like wind resistance. Bullet doesn't have anything for that, does it? It's doubtful, but I had to ask.

Thanks. Off to experiment with an approximation.

Ok, so that worked perfectly. Thanks again, and that leads me to another question about the same object. The dart in question is a lawn dart, and they're usually grasped by the end opposite the needle, and thrown into the air, so that the needle leads, and the tail follows it roughly in a line tange...

Ah. That should have occurred to me I didn't get an assertion on the negative values for some reason, but this makes a lot of sense. Thanks. I'll test it out when I get to work, but I expect everything will be ok.

Hello, I'm trying to add compound objects into our game, and I'm seeing some odd behavior that I'm not sure how to get around, short of using dynamic mesh objects. I create a compound object to model a dart, using the following code to create the shape. btCompoundShape * compoundShape = new btCompou...

Hello, I'm having a problem with an object deativating and I'm not sure why. Here's the flow of our game. You are given an avatar to position on a basketball court. While you move, the ball physics volume is snapped to your position, it is being activated ( body->setActivationState(1) ), and the lin...

How is this working for you? I am going to try and simulate a basketball net, and I'm looking at the best way to do so. Any suggestions from the peanut gallery?
