Detailed Description

A softbody mesh, containing structures to store collision shape, simulation shape and deformation state.

The class bundles shapes and deformation state of a softbody that is simulated using FEM. The meshes used for collision detection and for the FEM calculations are both tetrahedral meshes. While collision detection requires a mesh that matches the surface of the simulated body as exactly as possible, the simulation mesh has more freedom such that it can be optimized for tetrahedra without small angles and nodes that aren't shared by too many elements.

Creation

To create an instance of this class call PxPhysics::createSoftBodyMesh(), and release() to delete it. This is only possible once you have released all of its PxShape instances.
