Model request

Make a drawer shape out of 5 boxes. Export an .obj. Run it through phygen. You now have a .phy file that contains five convex hulls forming the drawer shape. This is how concave objects are made.

 

Maybe everything we learn during this process will make a nice tutorial.

So I've learned a new point tonight: Convex hull physic shapes will be separate for each object of a model, right?

 

now I should do fix these:

- pivot points in back rear of each drawer.

- desk pivot point in same "Y" as drawers.

- re create physics for drawers (and desk mesh?) according to top point.

 

I can't go to office tomorrow , but I will make it as soon as possible.

if you can see something wrong, or something missing in my to-do list, please correct me.

Maybe?! this is a great tutorial for me right now. we have exactly same thing in our gameplay, but for a commode drawer! and I have to create models and physics for that. I had no Idea about how to do this before! but will do it easily, when I start that level.

After that, I can add some grabbing code like Penumbra uses pretty easily to the FPS script, and that will probably help you.

GREAT!!

ar you gone take all features from penumbra and put them in leadwerks or just this one?

can wait to see it in action and to play whit it

I'm a bit puzzeled with the lua code at the moment. I'm wondering how the drawers are positioned. I can't see any bones or pivots inside the desk mesh and neither do I see the code that positions the drawers at a pivot. I have to be totally blind here or I'missing something completely.

They were probably positioned in the modeling program so that when they're imported they're at the correct offset.

Thats what I thought at first. But when you open the drawers in the model viewer, you can see that the pivot point of the drawers lies in the back. I don't know why exactly but when you drag the drawers in the editor, the pivot point is indeed with the correct ofsett.

[omid3098]

your right Aggor.

Pivot points are placed in back rear of each drawer. but they exported without reseting transform. so you can place them with correct offset.

If I export them with reset transform, you have to place them one by one in their correct position.

I don't know if this type is right, but as Josh did not report anything I thought it's correct.
