[ODE] Contact sound generation

[Jon Watte]

You can estimate it as the relative velocities of the colliding 
bodies, dotted with the contact normal, times the weight of the bodies.

Note that you WILL need filtering, as there's typically a number of 
contacts between two bodies. And you only want to play sounds for 
contacts between body pairs that are "new" -- else, objects at rest 
would keep generating the same sounds (although very silently).

Cheers,

Subject: [ODE] Contact sound generation


Hi,

I'm wanting to generate sounds on collisions. I can easily create the 
sounds as I generate the contact joints, but how can I find out how 
loud to create the sounds? Is there some way to generate sounds based 
on the force applied at a contact joint?

thanks --Will
