Hi guys, how easy/possible is it to animate object demolition. e.g. a rock hitting a wall causing it to crack or break, or an earth quake doing the same.
Also, how about simulating a flood. Water gushing in?
Object Demolition and Flooding
so most of the stuff you are talking about is something a physics engine would do. Irrlicht is a rendering engine, and doesn't handle that stuff(though it does have nice simple collision). You should search the forums for Irrphysx or irrnewt. They integrate irrlicht with the physx and newton physics engines.
