Concave Regid Bodies is an Integral Part of Director Physics. This body is created by using the #concave proxy in the createrigidbody() method.
Createrigidbody(): used to create a rigid body.Here a # concaveshape proxy has been used.
Deleterigidbody(): deletes the rigid bodies
The movie attempts to showcase a concave rigid body.In the example a wine glass model is used to show case this. Spheres are made to fall into it. This has been captured from 2 camera positions. One can click the available button to add more rigid bodies to the scene. The use of concave proxy lets us see the bodies penetrating inside the wine glass.
