[ODE] newbie joint question

[Daniel Leyden]

I'm not sure what you are asking, but if you are using Cal3D to draw your 
model and you are setting the bone rotations manually (taken from ODE rigid 
body positions) then make sure you call calculateState() for each bone that 
you modify, it would look something like this:
pBone->setRotation ( pBone->getRotation() * DeltaQuat );

pBone->calculateState();
