      How does the added curve functions (similar to SketchyPhysics) work? Can't wait to see an example because my attempts to transform SP-scripts to MSP will take years...

      What exactly do you think? curve.skp

        Yes, this is exactly what I mean. Thank you very much! The first step to this:

          Hey faust, here is your birdy configured to work on MSPhysics and SketchyPhysics. I think it needs some adjustments though.

            Hey Anton, this is more than I could wish. It works excellent. Many thanks also to you!
            For people who want to work with the unlimited possibilities of Physics scripts, such examples are fundamental.
            In addition to the new capabilities of MSP, especially the transfer of SP to MSP is interesting for me because there are so many very good models and scripts. And when you look at this example, there are significant differences in the scripts. I would like to explore them in the near future ...

              @Anton: cool new MSPhysics models in 3D-Warehouse - you linked in the first post πŸ‘
              Magnets test, copyable joints, new turret with missiles, buoyancy with flow on water surface ... - impressive!

                Can we have an option to store Replay in a model, please?

                    Hey everyone, first post here. I have MSPhysics 0.4.0, and I have a model which I would like to use in a physics simulation. The model is a box with several protrusions and a few holes. When I run the simulation with show collision meshes enabled, the box's mesh is rendered as a box with all the empty spaces included, so objects hit the spaces between the protrusions instead of continuing through. Any help would be much appreciated!

                            The file:
                            C:/Users/Ralph/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/MSPhysics/win64/2.0/msp_lib.so
                            I not being found.
                            I a proper installation it should be there.
                            How did you install the files and subfolders ?
                            Did you install the contents of both of the required ZIP files, keep the subfolder structure entirely as it is in the ZIP ?

                            Do you actually have the missing file installed ?
                            Open the Plugins folder and have a look...
                            C:/Users/Ralph/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins

                            Compare the ZIP file's contents with what's in Plugins...
                            All files are needed...

                              Thanks TIG, C:/Users/Ralph/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/MSPhysics/win64/2.0/msp_lib.so is there!!

                              There was no "installation" I just downloaded the zip file, unzipped and copied to the Plugins folder.

                              The "missing" file msp_lib.so is the MSPhysics\win64\2.0 folder.

                              I'll try again this time un zipping directly to the plugins folder possible something was missed with the copy paste but the reported missing file is there.

                                    SynSuka3D here are various ways to get bodies and groups in MSPhysics:

                                    • body = simulation.get_body_by_name(name)
                                    • body = simulation.get_body_by_group(group)
                                    • group = simulation.get_group_by_name(name)
                                    • group = this.get_group # get group by body

                                    See extended docs here: http://www.rubydoc.info/github/AntonSynytsia/MSPhysics/MSPhysics/Simulation


                                    Ralphxyz, it works on mine. It strange that it doesn't work on yours. Can you open MSPhysics/main.rb and uncomment #UI.messagebox info, on line 21. After you start SU a messagebox box should display with a list of libraries and their loaded IDs. Then post the library names that have their IDs set to zero if there's any. The ID of zero indicates that library failed to load.

                                        Hey Ralphxyz,

                                        Okay, first of all, did you extract MSPhysics_0.7.0 into the plugins folder properly? You said you have main.rb in both MSPhysics folders, what do you mean by both? There should be only one MSPhysics folder in the plugins folder. And that one folder should be named "MSPhysics". Refer to the first post of this thread to see how the MSPhysics related content in the plugins folder should look. Please elaborate more if I misunderstood.

                                        Now, the error you just posted might also mean that you didn't uncomment the requested line in main.rb properly. Here is the main.rb file with the uncommented line. Place and overwrite the original file that is located in ../Plugins/MSPhysics/ folder. After you start Sketchup, a messagebox should appear listing all library names and their IDs. I would like you to post me at the forums which libraries appear with a zero ID (if any).

                                          did you extract MSPhysics_0.7.0 into the plugins folder properly? I "think" that is the problem.

                                            Yep, the files are extracted incorrectly.

                                            If you downloaded from github, only the files within the RubyExtension folder should be placed into the plugins folder. The rest are not necessary. In fact downloading from github is not necessary at all. You can download from the first post of this thread instead as it only contains the necessary files.

                                            Once you download, place MSPhysics folder and MSPhysics.rb into the Plugins folder. It should be:
                                            C:\Users[SomeUser]\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2015\SketchUp\Plugins\MSPhysics/
                                            C:\Users[SomeUser]\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2015\SketchUp\Plugins\MSPhysics.rb

                                            If that's not clear I guess a series of images or a video would be a better alternative for describing how to download plugins...
