the collision detection works great. for each collision you can query the
colliding triangles of the 2 involved collision models.

but the problem is the penetration depth. you have to calculate this.
IMHO this isn't impossible, but maybe, there is a better solution for ode.


then i have a problem with a car (4wheels, chassis, 4joints): it looks not
physically (if i use ODE collisiondetection it is ok), the left wheels
aren't on the ground (i have a sloped plane) and the damping is really
wrong.
