[ODE] Trimesh problems

[Anders Olofsson]

My mesh is actually derived from a heightmap (dem file) but using the 
heightmap directly would have been too costly, so I reduce it to a trimesh 
(this causes the large triangles..). In my little test the sides of the 
triangle that fails is 20000 units long and the spheres has a radius of 10 
units. Is this somewhere near your terrain tris in size?.

If I manage I'll compare the heightmap/trimesh code, but dont the heightmap 
code use plane collisions somehow (wich work ok)?.

Thanks!
