Interactive Compound Edits

Postby Bird » Mon Nov 24, 2014 11:49 am

Hi Julio,

I'm trying to interactively change the shape of a NewtonCompound. It works ok in some cases but fails when larger changes are made to the shape of the original compound. But if I save the scene that fails and reload it, it works fine. I think my transformation math is ok and I call NewtonBodySetMassProperties() after each edit is made Is there anything else I need to do, like resetting the center of mass after each edit? I pretty much used the same code from the sandbox demo.

Do you have any idea what might be happening.? I can't export a scene because it works fine when first loaded and only fails during interactive edits

what your are doing should do it.
Can I see your function?

Here's the function I'm calling when the user transforms one of the compound parts:
-Bird

Code: Select all
void setCompoundPartPose(PhysicsBody * const pBody)
{
   CompoundInfo & info = PhysicsModel::getInstance()->getCompound(pBody->bodyDesc.compoundID);
   PhysicsBody * const compoundBody = PhysicsModel::getInstance()->findPhysicsBody(info.bodyID);
   
   const NewtonBody * const newtonBody = (NewtonBody*)compoundBody->component->userData;
   NewtonCollision * const compound = NewtonBodyGetCollision(newtonBody);
      
   NewtonCompoundCollisionBeginAddRemove(compound);
   for (void* node = NewtonCompoundCollisionGetFirstNode(compound); node; node = NewtonCompoundCollisionGetNextNode(compound, node))
   {
      NewtonCollision * const collision = NewtonCompoundCollisionGetCollisionFromNode(compound, node);

      BodyID nodeID = static_cast<BodyID>(NewtonCollisionGetUserID(collision));
      PhysicsBody * const part = static_cast<PhysicsBody*>(NewtonCollisionGetUserData(collision));
      if (part && pBody == part && nodeID == part->bodyID)
      {
         pBody->component->localTransform = compoundBody->component->worldTransform.inverse(Eigen::Isometry) * pBody->component->worldTransform;
         dMatrix matrix;
         NewtonCollisionSetMatrix(collision, &matrix[0][0]);
      }
   }
   NewtonCompoundCollisionEndAddRemove(compound);

   NewtonBodySetMassProperties(newtonBody, compoundBody->bodyDesc.mass, compound);
}

I am not sure if NewtonBodySetMassProperties is doing the right thing, I will verify.
I know there is a way, I just do no remember now.
I believe at some prion some one showed me that NewtonBodySetMassProperties soudl no recalculate the compound. I think is assume the shape is already organized.

I verify tonight and let you know.

Hi Julio,

Any chance you can take a look at this one this weekend. It's kind of a big problem for me if I'm going to support Compound edits in my project.

Thanks
