I've more compilation problems. I'm using VS.Net and want to get the tri
collider contrib compiling. I am using the stuff that Erwin posted back on
8-18-02.

I have compiled and created a lib for dRay, dTriList and tri-collider (along
with Opcode 1.2, ODE and drawstuff). I eventually managed to get the
tri-collider test to compile and link, but I'm having problems with it. The
standard shapes are self colliding as expected, but the nearCallback is
never informed of collisions involving the triangles. Basically, the tri
collider is doing nothing :(.

I've read everything I could on the list about compiling the tri-collider
and followed all instructions. I think this all comes down to the confusion
over which version is most current. Does anyone have a definitive list of
sources for all the components required to get tri-collider working with the
new collision system?

That patch Erwin posted in August updates the dTriList and dRay contribs,
but not the tri-collider space. Are we meant to overwrite all files in
tri-collider with the newer version that came with dTriList?

At the very least, how can I go abouts finding out which section is failing
(i.e. is it Opcode, dtrilist, tricollider, dRay or ODE). Help is much
appreciated!!

G'luck,
John
