Patched the Wrapper and reworked the demos to work using the DBPro 5.9b3 upgrade.

There is also a nice new demo with a loader simulator.

I have made some small changes here and there.

The treecollision earlier got a problem above a certain number of polygons, dont remember how many, however, there is an advanced terrain demo which works just fine.

Try it out with your own terrain and see if you get it up and running !

Nope - Advanced Terrain is still bugged with tree collision (5.9b3)

This time, it crashes silently with a *massive* memory leak (even on the example




What's going on?

Do you get the error just compiling and running the demo (09). Or do you use you own heightmap and settings for the advanced terrain? If so could you get the settings to me somehow so I can try to reproduce the error?

It crashes on demo9; no modifications to the code- exactly the same as as it comes in the download

The program dissapears to the background after the 'tree collision' point. That's when I noticed the memory leak (and it was in fact still running)

I'm going to double check my install of DBP though - I'm not sure if Beta3 overwrote Beta2 properly, or whether it could be a problem there.

Sorry I got sorta swamped last night when I got home Should be finished downloading in about 5 mins and I'll let you know

[edit] WOW Demo 9 works here. Also even though newton is confused and messed up by odd terrain scales it no longer crashes with them. The spheres just go through the terrain

Demo 9 should work if you don't change anything though.

I still wish it would work with my terrain scales though (set terrain scale 1, 32, 6.4, 32)

Terrain demo works here, except for limb 0 where things go through it.

Position yourself at x=0, z=0 or scale the terrain up loads to see the problem.

See if you have any bogus occurences of the ndb.dll, make sure you only have one and that it is in the Dark Basic Professional\Compiler\plugins-user directory.

Latest version of directX is also recommended.
