Are you aware that VPhyiscs can simulate a perfect sphere? It's cheaper and smoother than the high-density collision mesh you're using at the moment. I forget its precise keyword unfortunately; all I can find by searching the loose CPP files is PhysSphereCreate(), but that isn't called directly. --[[user:TomEdwards|TomEdwards]] 07:07, 1 Dec 2008 (PST) | Are you aware that VPhyiscs can simulate a perfect sphere?

Simulating spheres
Are you aware that VPhyiscs can simulate a perfect sphere? It's cheaper and smoother than the high-density collision mesh you're using at the moment. I forget its precise keyword unfortunately; all I can find by searching the loose CPP files is PhysSphereCreate(), but that isn't called directly. --TomEdwards 07:07, 1 Dec 2008 (PST)
