[ODE] ODE for ground vehicule

[Frédéric Marmond]

Hi all!

I'm new in the list, and new with ODE.

I try to integrate ODE in my prog, which is built on Performer (a graphical 
renderer uppon openGL).
I try to simulate ground vehicule.
=> mass = 800Kg
=> gravit = 9.81


I use the Performer collision detection, and set the dSurfaceParameters and 
dSurfaceGeom by hand.
Contact joints are, for the moment, created between a body and the ground 
(static).
I get values from the buggy test, for ERP and CFM.


gravit=9.81 => CFM must be 0.0 (other, my car fall thru the ground).

I tryed with only one body per car... very ugly.



Is there a success story of something like this?
Any suggestion / parameters?

thanks for help!

Fred
