hi, I was testing out darkphyX more this weekend.. after making a .x model in cartography shop. I loaded it into dbpro fine. the models were simply 2 hollowed cubes with default thickness.. what i have found though are that objects are passing straight through the model at corner point as seen in attached image, the ball will pass through the corner and actually come out the opposite corner!
Other places are ok and the ball rebounds as expected
Any explanation for this?

Can't really say what's going on unless you show us how you create the physics for the walls, i suspect the ball is a standard "phy make sphere"?

Best bet is to use the debugger, shoot balls at the corner then look at the debugger to see if the geometry of the corner is off. Maybe you scale the models? The creation of physics objects from scaled models is somewhat flawed.

Regards

In the dark physx/demos/ragdoll/shooter demo .. where you shoot the falling ragdolls... certain 'spots' on the base that the dolls land on..seem also to allow the ball you fire to travel straight through..

anyone? sorry to bump but I haven't been clearly answered.
Here is the code for what it is worth
