non-convex dynamic meshes Newton Physics Engine

Post by Kamal99 »

Hello,

I am using Newton Physics Engine.
I get this message in Coppeliasim every time I load my objects in the scene.

The scene contains one or several non-convex dynamic meshes, which are not supported with the selected dynamics engine. Those meshes will be simulated with their convex hull instead.

Is there a way to not have it appear every time I load objects?

Thank you!

Hello,

the message appears at the start of a simulation, when using the Newton engine and non-convex shapes. The message also contains following: Do not show this message again (you will however have to check this checkbox a total of 3 times). So if you do not want that message to display anymore, start the simulation, then check the checkbox. Then repeat 3 times.

Cheers

Hello,

Sadly I don't get this option, there is only the OK button. I know what you are talking about when I used Bullet 2.38engine. But with Newton engine, I do not get it. Is there another way to solve it? Eventually, I would like to use the simulation in headless mode so I am wondering if that would be a problem for me then.

regards,
Kamal

you can disable those warnings e.g. from within a child script:

Code: Select all

function sysCall_init()
    sim.setInt32Param(sim.intparam_dynamic_warning_disabled_mask,256)
end
In headless mode, the warning would not show at all.

Cheers
