I want to create a leash (the same from a previous thread), but right I'm finding the following issues:

1- The documentation says that you need to call the coroutine GeneratePhysicRepresentationForMesh, yet apparently there's no such coroutine anymore.
2- To add a pin constraint, I needed to get the batch of pin constraint using rope.PinConstraints, yet PinConstraints doesn't seem to exist anymore, along with the class Obi.ObiPinConstraintBatch
3- If I wanted to get the last particle of a rope, I used the rope.UsedParticles variable, yet UsedParticles doesn't seem to exist anymore.

Congrats on the release of 5.0!

As promised I updated the manual on this subject:
http://obi.virtualmethodstudio.com/tutorials/scriptingactors.html

I'd like to think that creating a rope at runtime (and any actor, for that matter) is much easier and concise in 5.0 than in previous versions.

Also, you can take a look at a pretty complete example in the GrapplingHook.cs file, included in the sample resources folder (/Obi/Samples/RopeAndRod/SampleResources/Scripts)

Let me know if you need help with it!

If you have a solution for that?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Sorry, I don't understand the question.... what do you mean by "I can't load it as an obisolver only as a gameobject"?

I created a prefab with an obisolver and I exported it to another project. In a script in the project I want to instantiate a solver with the prefab, not creating it by script, just instantiate a solver from the solver prefab I imported...and it failed....unity crashes.


I make some tests since yesterday, if i create a cube and add a script on it....in the script I create a public obisolver. I put the prefab of the solver in the script on the scene and in the start function I just instantiate the solver: ObiSolver.Instantiate(SolverFR, Vector3.zero, Quaternion.identity); Unity freeze....I can't instantiate a solver from a prefab.

I think the only solution is to create by script the solver and the ropes, but it's quite not the best way for me.

thanks a lot in advance if you have any solution for that.

Tested what I think you are doing (instantiating a GameObject with a solver component on it), works just fine for me. Actually, instantiating an object and creating it in code is the same thing internally, so there's no reason I can think of that would cause instatiation to crash/freeze.

Make sure the object you're instantiating does not contain itself the instantiation script. That would cause the instantiated object to instantiate itself again in Start() causing an infinite loop, and of course leading to a crash/freeze.

My script that make unity crashed:
Object prefab = BundleManager.Get3DPrefab("Obi Solver");
ObiSolver SolverFR = GameObject.Instantiate(prefab) as ObiSolver;

with Get3DPrefab:
public static GameObject Get3DPrefab(string name)
    {
        GameObject go = Instance._bundle3D.LoadAsset(name, typeof(GameObject)) as GameObject;
        if (go == null)
            Debug.LogError("Cannot load or find asset " + name + " in 3D bundle");

        return go;
    }

And the prefab I tried to instantiate:


Thanks a lot Jose
