Hello, im trying to make a driving simulation. im in need of codes for collision in the map, the rear and side mirrors, the speedometer and the movement of the car.

also, im using maya 2008 for my 3D models, is there anyway to import it to darkgdk?

many thanks!

Try exporting from maya as DBO format

For collisions , you can use Sparky collision DLL, BUT you probably want physics so you can use ODE, Bullet, Newton or Dark Physics.

For the mirrors you can use a camera with dbSetCameraToImage ,and then applying that image to an object or limb.

For the movement of the car, as i said above , you can use Physics libraries.

GDK only supports .X and .DBO files.
So you can pass you maya files to another program that supports .X file, or maybe is a .X plugin for maya.

Keep it up

managed to get my grummy hands on sparky's dll (though im figuring it out how do i place them in the correct folders XD)

anyway, i wont be using the physics. it's just a simple game that needs to bump into walls (and hopefully, not through it)

my problems are still the rear and side view mirrors and the tachometer

hmm
