Can't Create Mesh Physical Body
I have imported a model which has 46 parts , 423003 vtxs, 341196 tris. 0 Quads and i cant make the physics work i keep getting the "Cant create Mesh Physical Body"

I have tried everything i can think of to remedy this.
I have a virtual drive G: pointing to the datafolder on a removable hardrive.

Pls help

RE: Can't Create Mesh Physical Body
My guess would be you have too many vertices to create 1 single static mesh.

It did it once back in July, but now it wont. But your probably right

Well, I was able to cut the vtxs in half. Still nope!

When's the last time you updated?

Perhaps it's still too high? You can create a physics body around a single part instead of the entire mesh. Try that and see if it works (since the vertex count will be much lower). I'm not totally positive that PhysX even has a vertex limitation though (for static meshes), so vertex count might not even be the problem at all.
