So you can't assign another material to your chassis than that your wheels use and vice versa. But they talk about changing the cars material on the fly or attaching another node with a different material. So if the engine wouldn't support different materials, they wouldn't tell him to try that imo. :)
Geez. Having one material for my tires and one material for the body of my vehicle is OK, since that's a logical separation, but one material for the static world is insane.

The bottom most demo has different ground materials. :)
You sure? Doesn't look like there's a differentiation between, say, tarmac and grass.

PhysX is probably the best bet as it's free for commercial use on the PC. I'd be using it for all my demos that include physics if it were not for the 28MB driver download...

One material for the entire level? Have I got this right? I've looked at the Newton SDK tutorial samples and the same thing applies there - one "material" for the whole level. If, for example, my level has tarmac and grass then I have two different materials - I'd expect my vehicle to react differently to the two surfaces
you can assign 1 material PER node. you can assign at 5 nodes the same material, and you can't assing to the same body 5 materials.

you need separate the grass from the level and create new bodies for grass, than assign 2 different materials at them. Or how my wrapper and Newton can deduce if the surface is the level or if the surface is the grass, if they are part of the same body?

Digging in the Newton forums I see that there may be a way of doing the multiple-materials-per-node thing. Looks like I'll need to write my own wrapper to handle my needs.

No doubt I'll hit another snag, though...

Your forum has been hacked; when you click new topic it takes you to a spam site.

If I want to use IrrNewt in my project is there a logo I can use to give credit?

I made it, after seeing that you don´t have a Logo.. maybe you like it. If so, I could send you the PSD file as well.
(of course you can use it for free!!)
