Hi

What is the best technic for a 3d third person action game, for the collisions ?
For example, for a game like ratchet and clanck ( action, platform (character can walk, run, fight, jump, is blocked by obstacle...)) :
- use the raycast like in the fps example from tgc ?
- use the physics (simplified object), characters, static, dynamic, kinematics objects..?

What are the best performance ?
What do you think ?

Thanks.

There is a very good example of that here. Not physics though but i think it would be easy to implement

I would say still using physics system, but probably using a custom character controller code to handle movement and jumping (using your own specific linearvelocity calculations and angle rotations).

There's nothing particularly bad about the build-in physics based 3D character controller, but it is a little difficult to get smooth controls and such. I currently do use it in my game , and works. But it could do with a few more features (and a debug mode, which seems planned for a future release fortunately).
