Valmond: I do not actually know of any MMORPG that currenyly uses physics in their games. If I was going to use it in such a situation I would only use physics for special effects in the game like explosions.

Lets get more game developers using Cinema4D!

Not sure if this will help you or not with what you are doing, but I wrote a tutorial on using Irrlicht to load Quake files into Cinema4D, including the lightmaps, and setting it up so that the user can render the scene in Cinema4D.
