What method of updating do you use? Are you using async or regular update?

I found the problem it was the objects i was using, I have attached one of the objects. I thing TGC should fix this because people have paid for this, and expect it to work.

Thanks anyways

I tried this as a quick test and it works fine:



Can you provide any further info on what you are doing? It may be something else is causing a conflict.

In the example code you posted all of the objects are created in the same location which can cause a massive slow down. When I tried it things were moving but very slowly. It was struggling along at 15 fps. Now if you were to give them some space that example will work:



I'm wondering if the position of your objects is the cause. Can you take a look at this please.

Yes that does work, But in my project, what it does is it loads a world made in my own world editor, and positions all the objects in place. The objects are not positioned near each other, but in my engine, it still has this problem. I think it may be something i am doing wrong in my engine. However, i tried the little house model provided with the darkphy projects, and this works in my engine. I will try to track down what it is in my code which is causing this.

Thanks for the help
