do you mean stencil shadows?

aha

looking like this

so, what about shadows(read: about models VS blocks)?

i am not sure what i see there on the screenshots? do you mean that if a model gets out of the view frustum its stencil shadows disappear even if they still are supposed to be visible?

i don't use stencil shadows. they have other problems too not only that one. for static shadows on models i use my plugin and in the future i will use realtime shadow mapping. (i already have a working pssm implementation. it just needs some improvements like filtering.)

does this newton lite-c code supports vehicle physics?

yes, there is no vehicle example but the vehicle joint is there. you could look into the offical newton tutorials to figure out how it works.

oh great. i worked with vehicles with old a6 newton plugin and before couple of months i started using lite-c so...thanks

and BTW, what are you planning to do more on this newton lite-c?

??? QUESTION...when i tried to put two newton vehicles back on a6 (before) they didn't collided with each other. do you know maybe why?

i don't know what to put under upDir...???
NewtonConstraintCreateVehicle (const NewtonWorld* newtonWorld, const dFloat* upDir, const NewtonBody* body);


my code goes...
...
car = ent_create("car.mdl", camera.x, NULL);
NewtonBody *car_body = newton_addentity(car, 10, NEWTON_CONVEXHULL, onforceandtorque);
car_body = NewtonConstraintCreateVehicle (n_world, ""0"", car);
...

can someone please help? with what should i replace ""0"" part of my code???

you may ask at official forum - man from there primary makes racing-games, so they can help you

no,no...that ""0"" must be replaced with "const dFloat* upDir".

NEWTON_API NewtonJoint* NewtonConstraintCreateVehicle (const NewtonWorld* newtonWorld, const dFloat* upDir, const NewtonBody* body);

that says in newton.c from ventilator. now i don't understand what type is const dFloat* updir,..what's that?
