i'm programming a little side scroller ,using some physix for actor and enemies and other elements

my problem is now, that i wanted to add some nice looking .hmp files as my ground... but as i tried the compiled level my actor fell through the terrain. i tried it several times again, with models other terrains and so on, but the only thing working were wed's level blocks...

my actor is a pXent_settype(my, PH_RIGID, PH_CONVEX); object the enemies too.

the terrain was PH_RIGID(with frozen movement)/PH_STATIC , PH_POLY/PH_CONVEX/PH_TERRAIN combined in all possible ways...

if you need more code please tell me... if necessary I can post the full game too.

thx for all help, LPF

Register them as static and polygonal objects, see manual entry for pXent_settype.

I had this problem yesterday. At first, try not to resize your terrain in WED. If this behaviour still occurs set the floor of the terrain as close as possible to z=0. This should do it.

Ok, that solved the issue -> i had to place my terrain at z = 0 to get a proper collision detecion, but then it worked with all types PH_SATIC/PH_RIGID and PH_CONVEX/PH_TERRAIN/PH_POLY

thanks for help!

No problem, you don't even need to register the terrain in the physic engine when placing it on z=0.
