Hello,
When using the Dynamica plugin for Maya 2009, physics scenes are not exported correctly. The resulting COLLADA file only contains some rigid bodies with Id "BulletUnnnamed-RigidBody" and not the names I set in Maya. Collision shapes are not exported at all.
I tried exporting the sample scenes (peanut box, etc.) and got the same results.
Has anybody experienced the same problem? Any help is appreciated
thanks

Re: Problem exporting to COLLADA with Dynamica for Maya 2009
Indeed, the names are auto-generated at the moment, not taken from Maya.with Id "BulletUnnnamed-RigidBody" and not the names I set in Maya
It seems to work fine here.Collision shapes are not exported at all.
Have you tried to select all physics objects and use 'File/Export Selection' and then choose filetype 'COLLADA Physics export' and save it as 'file.dae' ?
Thanks,
Erwin

Re: Problem exporting to COLLADA with Dynamica for Maya 2009
ok I see. I was confused by that.Indeed, the names are auto-generated at the moment, not taken from Maya.
Regarding collision shapes:
* I was creating a "Mesh" rigid body. Exporting this creates a rigid body which references a geometry "BulletUnnamed-Geometry", but that geometry does not appear on the file. But I can separately export the mesh with the Maya fbx exporter and then match them (is this the intention?)
* But creating a box, sphere, hull or plane does create the rigid body and collision shape. thanks!
