I can't even remember why I coded a mover and a rotator for the shield! I have removed them and now directly set the worldtransform of the shield shape to the animation bone's transform. Now it's a rock steady 60 fps on respawn. I just tested it and everything is fine; the shield still protects the ...

I use an entitymover to attach a shield to an enemy. After the enemy dies, I teleport the character off to Limbo, when it respawns I teleport the enemy character near to the player. The problem is the entitymover for the Shield, it's causing problems, presumably the shield is rushing across the worl...

Here's a video of it all working. http://youtu.be/wg8dz7hAjao I've attached the target boxes to the helicopter using a BallSocketJoint and an AngularMotor for each box, which has cured the drift. I now build the ray using camera.worldmatrix.translation instead of position, which has cured the ray ca...

Sorry! You already have the answer, I didn't see page 2, doh!

You can right click your project name in the solution explorer. Then left click "properties". This will display the properties window for said project. Alternatively, you can type Alt + Enter. Then you can add "CHECKMATH" to the conditional compilation symbols textbox. Use a semi...

I was doing something wrong with my ray-cast, although I am not sure exactly why it's wrong. I was creating the ray like this, using the camera position. _ray.Position = _sm.Camera.Position; _ray.Direction = _sm.Camera.WorldMatrix.Forward; I changed it to use the worldmatrix translation and now the ...

I get you. You are saying it may not be the target that is in error but the origin of the ray-cast. I will investigate that, thanks.

I've done as you've suggested: adding a joint and an angular motor. This has cured the drift problem, thanks! _sm.Space.Add(new BallSocketJoint(_sm.AIHelicopter.Body, Shape, Shape.Position + new Vector3(0, 0.2f, 0))); //Angular motors can be used to simulate friction when their goal velocity is 0. a...

I have changed the status of the video to "public".

I will investigate your suggestion of using "two body constraints". Is there an example within the demos that I should have a look at?

Hi, I am trying to allow the player to buy a weapon from the wall inside a moving helicopter. My solution is to create a dynamic sphere for each weapon. I then cast a ray and see if there's a collision. I use entitymover to keep the sphere relative to the helicopter body. I use a matrix.createtransl...

Thanks Norbo, how simple to fix, when you know how!
Here's a video of it in action, with a few more changes applied.

Ah! OK. Thanks. I'll get on with it.

From looking at another post I decided to add this code. It didn't fix it though Body.ActivityInformation.IsAlwaysActive = true; Body.PositionUpdateMode = PositionUpdateMode.Continuous; I've made a private video: When arriving in the first helicopter, all the collisions are fine, this helicopter is ...

Hi, I have a helicopter that the character spawns inside. I've been calculating a path and evaluating this path for the EnityMover and EntityRotator. That approach works fine. When the helicopter moves or rotates the character rotates with it and stays within the helicopter interior. I have recently...
