OpenGL collision with Leadwerks commands?

[SpiderPig]

I want to make my own terrain generator/editor with LOD levels, and the built in surface commands are two slow for me..so I'm going to use OpenGL. But before I go any further with it...would it be possible to set up the terrain model some how to accept leadwerks collision commands, with vehicles and controllers? Everything..?

 

I havn't gone far with this project yet...jsut want to see if its all possible..=]

 

Thanks=]

If you create an le mesh/surface equivalent of it once you're happy with it and set it up as collision tree (http://www.leadwerks.com/wiki/index.php?title=Bodies#CreateBodyTree) then yes.

A newton heightfield might be more efficient but there are no commands exposed for that.

This will only make the physics work, the raycasting commands won't detect the mesh I suppose.

 

Getting the rendering/lighting to look correct with a custom drawn object will be a pain...

Hmmm, thanks Masterxilo,

I had a feeling lighting would be a pain...I'll have to give it more thought=]

maybe the surface commands are the best shot, though they're awfully slow when changeing a vertexs postion..

I'll do reasearch

thanks,
