Bullet vs RBD solver: dynamic/prefractured objects. April 8, 2012, 12:08 a.m.

Ahh I see, thanks for the response! I wasn't aware bullet did not take into account magnet forces for breaking glue. The result makes much more sense now.

display fracture object names in Geo SOP? March 22, 2012, 2:54 p.m.

The option to display object names works well for objects that have been turned into dynamics, but I'd like to see piece names of an object that has been pre-fractured on the geometry level. Is there an easy way to see this?

-Thanks

Bullet solver and complex collision volume shapes March 16, 2012, 5:41 p.m.

I'm curious how people are using Bullet in simulations. I'm noticing that with any complexity to the collision volume (i.e. any concave-ness) Bullet breaks down horribly and bounces off the volume like it was an implied cube.

How are people using Bullet to get around this problem? I'd really like to use Bullet for what I'm working on because it's so much faster but I'm not sure how to do something simple like create a wall with a few indents in it and have Bullet work with that shape.

Bullet is great against the default ground plane but against anything else it seems to be pure fail for me regardless of what settings I use.
