You can setup your objects at startup using dSetBodyPosition and
dSetBodyPosition, or something similar. And a "transform" object
seems to exist (I don't use it).

But keep in mind that, once your simulation started, you shouldn't
try to modify positions/rotations manually; this will break the
simulation process (especially wrt joints constraints, if I
understand it properly).
