Hi,
The comments below refer to the quoted code at the bottom...
I've been trying to get a basic Dark Physics experiment working, can you tell me why the particles are so small? How do I make them bigger so that the box gets more "full"?
I've tried setting the particle radius with: dbPhySetFluidParticleRadius(), but it fails to link with an unresolved symbol.
Any advice or examples of Dark Physics fluids in GDK (C++) would be much appreciated.
Regards, Dan...
