Hey there.

I can’t remember if the version I’m using at home is XNA 4 yet. I’ll have a look.
There is a XNA v3 version on my blog however.

here…

Hopefully not too difficult to upgrade.

cheers,

Lawrence.

Hi Jegan.

The old source code that matches the tutorial text is here…

http://sharky.bluecog.co.nz/uploads/code/Sharky.3DCollisionDetection.Tutorial_v1.0.0.2.zip

It’s so long ago that I don’t remember what version of XNA Game Studio you would need to open the project.

I’m sorry I can’t update the tutorial text right now, as I’m right in the middle of completing my second game for publishing. I certainly would like to update it one day, but I have no idea when that would be.

Thanks. I’m glad the tutorial is still helping people. I really should update it for XNA 4.0.

In my own projects I have also changed the MeshInfo xml files to a content type loaded with the Content Manager.

Thanks for the tutorial, im new to 3D game development and I must say that I’m still clueless to many aspects, I couldn’t even begin to imagine 3d physics *cry*.

Anyways I wanted to mention to Banzai that you do not need to use a bounding box to check ground collision, the only way I know of that is “easier” is getting all the Y points of the models height points and then check that vs the y point of your model, if that makes sense.

I’v created a setup at the moment and i’m having trouble with the Boinding Sphere’s not being inline with the “ModelMesh”. If you could please tell me how to determin the Location and Radius of a Bounding Sphere for a ModelMesh it would be a great help. Its probally in you demo app, but i cant see it. Thanks.

Banzai, sorry I’m really not sure. I’m no expert I’m afraid.

Have you asked in the http://creators.xna.com forums? Someone will know, and the microsoft fellas are very good at responding too.
