Collision Detection

   I use Cinema 4D R8.5.

Has anyone tried the c++ collider engine in any release? If so, I was wondering how it performed as far as stability, speed, and accuracy.

	A little late in response (don't check this forum area often). I indeed use the collder engine. Stability and speed are very good. Accuracy is adequate. The hardest part is preparing the collision objects - as they must be triangulated polygon objects. There is more work involved than the docs describe in this respect (especially if the objects are complex hierarchies). One thing to note: there are better algorithms for the ray collider out there (if you need to do ray collision) than the one included in the C++ SDK.
