[ODE] TriMesh: Only want intersections

Hi Farshid,

FL> I'm using ODE for collision detection only, no physics. In my simulation
FL> I have a model of a room that I've converted to a TriMesh object. Inside
FL> the room I have other geometry objects such as boxes and spheres. I want
FL> to detect when the box or sphere intersects with the room. Is there a
FL> way to detect if these objects are intersecting with any triangles? I'm
FL> currently using dCollide, and if my objects are in the center of the
FL> room it is still considered a collision, even though it's not touching
FL> any triangles. Can I extract this information from the contact joint?
FL> Any help is appreciated.

    You are lucky guy! There are Pierre, the men behind Opcode , in
    the list. I think Opcode perfectly match what you need.(That's
    mean you needn't to use all ODE package).
