I want to have multiple models that collide with each other and walk on a terrain, but I am not sure how to go about it. Can someone please give me a little help?
In the Roaming Ralph demo there is a line “attachnewNode” associated with the ralph model. I’m noty sure if I have to create one for each model. I am lost as to where to start. Could someone please help me?
I’ve been here before, but the links do not work. I get an error on the page. The only link that worked is the movie.
Do you know how I can get them to work? Or perhaps, you can pm the codes to me. This would be a great help to me. Thanks
I just finished downloading the files. I’ll look at them tonight.
Thanks very much ynjh_jo.
I was able to run terrain.py (The coding in there is mind-boggling. I don’t know if I will ever get to that level, even with Panda3d. Only 30 fps! That’s great!)
When I run scene.py I get an error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

With pandaSteer.py I get this:

Can you tell me how to fix this? Thanks
It’s API changes issue. Use modifySolid() instead of getSolid() to get and modify the tube.
I’ll try that. Thanks.
edit:
I tried, and got the same error.
How is it that everyone got theirs working, and mine wouldn’t?
Could it be the version of Panda I am using?
edit again:
I had to change getSolid in vehicle.py, and pandaSteer ran. However, scene.py now gives me the error: Cannot call collisionSegment.setPointB() on a const object.
final edit:
Sorry. It’s all my fault.
I did not locate all the getSolids.
They are both running now.
Lesson for me: Be thourough, not rushed.
Thanks much, for responding and helping.
