Unstable GImpact mesh shape collisions #662

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Collisions between GImpact mesh shapes are unstable.
It seems that especially with parallel triangles contact points have incorrect 
normals and cause objects to move sideways instead of away from each other.
More info and test files in this blender bug report:
http://projects.blender.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=32105&group_id=9&a
tid=306

Tested with Bullet 2.80 on Arch Linux but older versions and other OSs have the 
same problem.

Yes, this is a known limitations of gimpact, it simply finds overlapping 
triangles and performs a local penetration check.

We'll have to come up with a better solution.

Alternatively, it would be great to add convex decomposition in Blender, so you 
can use a btCompoundShape with btConvexHull child shapes. HACD can do this.

Do you know someone who wants to help integrating HACD into Blender?

Adding convex decomposition in blender is on my todo list so I'll get around to 
integrating HACD eventually.

I added a converter from gimpact to btCompoundShape.

Could you try that in Blender?
You basically need to update those 3 files from this commit:
https://code.google.com/p/bullet/source/detail?r=2631

Then 
#include "BulletCollision/Gimpact/btCompoundFromGimpact.h

btCompoundShape*    btCreateCompoundFromGimpactShape(const btGImpactMeshShape* 
gimpactMesh, btScalar depth);

Thanks,
Erwin

I committed the fix to Blender trunk, see

Seems to work well, have to test if there are cases where gimpact works better.
Might be worth it to have an option to choose between the two.

The performance of the btCompoundShape can be improved a bit. There are also 
other ways to improve collisions between concave triangle meshes, using 
continuous collision detection. Most that is already in Bullet, a few things 
needs to be hooked up.

Another nice feature to add to Blender is .bullet file export and import. 
Export is only 5 lines of code, once you have a bt*DynamicsWorld. That way, you 
can use Blender to create collision and ragdoll/constraint setup and import it 
into a game. It is also useful to report bugs here.
