How do you point the raycast in the direction the camera is pointing for an FPS Game?
And can raycasting move objects and tear cloth?

You don't want to use ray casting with Dark Physics right now. There's a problem with the ray cast functions only returning the lowest numbered object that is hit by the ray, rather than the closest object.

Technically, raycasting can be used to move objects and whatnot, but you'll have to do a lot more than just cast a ray. The ray needs to be used to determine little more than the point of impact.

Everything I needed to know about trigonometry, I learned by becoming a game programmer.

So how would I be able to do the same thing with Sparky's Collision?

it would be interesting to see if sparky's collision could recognise a physx object.
