Hello,
I 'm new in the 3D geom. and physic sim field. I'm trying to pick
suitable physic sim package to use is it in a robot evolution related
framework. I've got the following questions:
First, What should I do to get permission to use ODE. 
And I have a 3D geometry-ODE related question:  I've got 4 legged robot
built of 5 boxes. I need to run the robot sim and then I need  to
re-initialize position of the robot's body and legs. I was tried to
remember the rotation matrixes before sim start and then to apply them
by using BodySetRotation, but it do not work - may be because  the
rotation operations are relative: Is there any one who can help me?
Sorry for the newbie question but I am really new here.
 
Ruslan Trifonov
