Sorry, but (as usual) I become crazy try to find out the latest Help File about Dark PhysX.

I'm tryng to understand something about soft body, but searching "soft body" (or "help file") get no result.

I love DBPro and all Gamecreators for the big satisfactions they gave me in the last years, but about 1) Installation 2) Help files it looks like.. Ok, I don't want to tell stupid stuff.

Simply, I become crazy looking for it..
Can some body help me?



(about installation, adding all the installation keys in the order history it was a great idea!)

The help files for dark physics are found here: Dark Basic Professional folder -> Projects -> Dark Physics -> Documentation. There should be both the reference and information help files.

Theory is when you know something, but it doesn't work. Practice is when something works, but you don't know why.
Programmers combine theory and practice: Nothing works and they don't know why.

That help files (documentation) is not exactly the "latest".. nothing about soft bodies, for example..

My opinion is, there must be a place (maybe in the forum) that collect ALL the help files and documentation available.

I know it's something OUT OF MIND..

Strange, in my help files there is the soft bodies section. If you download the latest update (1.05) and look into the zip file in Projects -> Dark Physics -> Documentation there is the new documentation (including soft bodies).

Theory is when you know something, but it doesn't work. Practice is when something works, but you don't know why.

ok, thanks a lot, people!

Anyway, what do you think about a place where collect ALL the documentations (and keywords) for all the plugin?

Meditate..

Again Thx!

if some does do that then they will be making a new therad every time its updated, as I had one going about undoc commands not turing blue in PhysX.

@Kendor
This is an Index list for PhysX for use in the ide, press F1 and you get the main help file list, with link to a list of all commands in PhysX, instead of opening a chm system.

not a new Thread, a 3d divided for all the plugins with edited posts linked to the latest.

Not so difficult to do.

Or simply a download section in the profile.
or in the home page.

Nobody like it?

For example, the keyword and the Help about the simple 6.9 upgrade, don't you think that is out of mind the fact that there's a lot of undocumented features that you have (but you don't use 'cause simply you don't know?)

Here is the download link for upgrade 6.9, and in the same page the keyword and the help file.

maybe some day

@HowDo
Don't know, but I prefer the chm file as opposed to the F1 system. As I see it, the F1 help is great if you already know the command and just want to check that the parameters are correct. Whereas for new people, the chm is ideal as it shows each command in their category, making life much easier.

Theory is when you know something, but it doesn't work. Practice is when something works, but you don't know why.
