havok collision detection problem

[JustStupid]

Hello everyone,

Been posting a few problems recently some of which I found my answers myself
after a bit more thinking. So promise this will be last one for a while anyway!
:tounge;

I'm using havok via importing the havok physics scene into the cast [non hke]
and trying to add collision detection to my complex model (a castle!) and well
its not really doing anything my characters can still walk through the walls,
but there are no errors as well so I can't see where I'm going wrong :rose;

Heres the code I have.

on beginSprite me
myHk = member("havok")
myMember= sprite(me.spritenum).member
myTolerance = 4.0 -- usualy only 10% of worldscale
myWorldScale = 1 -- inches (1 inch = 0.0254 metres [use 1.0 if world is
designed using Metres]
myGravity = vector(0, -9.81, 0) -- for 1.0 metre scale, use vector(0, -9.81,
0)
myHk.initialize( myMember, myTolerance, myWorldScale ) -- set it up
myHk.gravity =myGravity
-- used by the step() function in the exitframe
myTimeStep = 0.04 -- 1/25.0 i.e. 25 fps
mySubSteps = 5 -- used by havok to calculate between time steps

mlist = ["castle","water", "knight", "whiteknight"] --this is a list of
model-numbers I want to apply physics to

player = myMember.model("knight")
player.addModifier(#meshDeform)
prb = myHk.makeMovableRigidBody("knight",100,true,#box)

player2 = myMember.model("whiteknight")
player2.addModifier(#meshDeform)
prb2 = myHk.makeMovableRigidBody("whiteknight",100,true,# box)

m = myMember.model("castle")
m.addModifier(#meshDeform)
myHk.makeFixedRigidBody(m.name,false)

m = myMember.model("water")
m.addModifier(#meshDeform)
myHk.makeFixedRigidBody(m.name,false)
end

on exitFrame me
myHk.step( myTimeStep, mySubSteps ) -- advance the simulation

--Down
if keyPressed(125) then
player.translate(0,-5,0)
end if

--up
if keyPressed(126) then
player.translate(0,5,0)
end if

--left
if keyPressed(123) then
player.rotate(0,0,5)
end if

--right
if keyPressed(124) then
player.rotate(0,0,-5)
end if
end

on endSprite me
myHk.shutdown() -- Tidy up, i.e. remove it from memory
end

Any ideas of what could be going wrong? Can havok be applied to complex
models?

Cheers in advance for any suggestions!

thats a very clever move!!!

but the problem is not the set up of the scene, it's your navigation. If you
want to move a Object in the havok world, you have to do this with forces.

i did some time ago this little demo to make a very simple navigation with
havok.

the code has a lot of comments, if you have more questions just ask.

regards!

Thanks I will check it out! :wink;
