I’m trying to import a mesh from a GLTF file and turn it into a rigid body - physics object. I have the ConvexHull collision meshes modeled and ready, but the docs example playground ( Babylon.js Playground ) is pretty convoluted and weirdly organized and I’m not understanding what’s the correct way …

Hi @VisionsMind AFAIK, there is no way to automaticaly create impostor when loading a scene (.gltf/.babylon/…). I’ve found a thread and a playground that illustrate creating impostor for a scene. Basically, impostor type is created based on mesh name. ( check lines 226 to 232) glTF & Basic Physi…

Thank you for sharing that playground! It’s nice to have an example that’s not written as weirdly as the one in the docs. However it seems that it just doesn’t import any of the collision meshes. It’s just using primitives generated by BabylonJS, not the imported ConvexHull collision meshes - which…

Babylonjs is open source and we highly encourage community PR to improve the engine. If you have ideas/concepts that will make the experience better, feel free to open a PR. As long as back compat is preserved, anything can be done.

Should suggestions be placed somewhere here on the forum first to be discussed, etc? I don’t have enough programming experience to make changes myself, unfortunately. I’m primarily a 3D game artist learning some programming/technical skills in order to make my own prototypes/demos, but I could try …

The forum is perfect for discussing ideas/solution proposal. For more concrete development, Github is preferable. Also, you can improve with smaller PR, documentation updates, example PG…anything that can help people. Even a blogpost explaining how you achieve a particular task is helpful.

Awesome! Where would one post suggestions (here in the forum - sections)? Yes! I’ve thought about making some quick tips/tricks on youtube and maybe some blog posts somewhere or some Playground stuff. I think I need to build up some confidence first - might get into it when I get a couple demos/pro…
