I've googled 'til I'm blue and searched the fora, I keep coming back to the same two or three tutorials, and it doesn't work!! I know I'm doing something dumb, but I can't find it! Is anyone in here familiar with collision export in Blender? And have time for a newbie?
Assuming the answer is yes (and if it isn't then you don't want to read the rest of this post) then here's the setup:
I'm using:
Blender 2.49b
NifTools blender_nif_scripts-2.5.1
PyFFI 2.1.2
I'm modelling a bunch of carpenter's tools - mostly simple enough convex shapes, and for the collision I've hulled them with the script as convex poly and exported to nif: works a treat.
Then there's the drawknife - that's the blade on two handles in the pic. It's definitely concave. I started with a convexpoly and that was fine, but obviously it behaved unrealistically. So I've created a trianglemesh like this:
Exported that to nif, which has a Mopped collision tree and everything - but now it acts like there's no collision, or maybe a very dodgy one.
I've tried small radius, big radius, Ridid Body - nothing seems to make a difference.
Can anyone spot the schoolboy error? It would be much appreciated!
