Create simulation with shell and ground

“

- [Instructor] Now we're going to start actually building our dynamic simulation with our objects. And we're going to start just with two of our sets of geometry. We're gong to start here with the shell of our crate, and then we're going to start with the ground object here. And we'll just drop the crate onto the ground, have it break apart, and that'll be our initial beginning. So if we go into our shell object, really straightforward, we're object merging in just that model from our master model. But if we middle mouse click, you see we've got our shell and our shell proxy. We have the same geometry basically, but two levels of detail around it. If I click on the blast2 here on the left, and let's zoom in, you can see that we have the actual production geometry. If I click on this blast3's display flag over here, you can see we have a lower resolution proxy version of the geometry that we've created for you. We're going to be talking a lot about proxy collision geometry…
