ellipse / polly collision

| anyone know how to find if an ellipsoid has hit a parrot errm I mean poly(gon) I would like to implement lifts (not to mention collisions!) in the bsp parsing example (so you'll all benefit!) I'm unfortunatly begining to learn more math than I want to! I dont find coding at such a low level too rewarding... |

| If you search on google for collision detection you should find something fairly easily where they use ellipses as bounding objects for collision detection in bsp trees. |

| yes - google was my first stop. (for quite a few hours) actually implementing this in max is another matter, the algorithms are... well mind boggling I'm initially not too bothered with using the bsp tree, I know it is very efficient, but in the end it still boils down to checking a swept ellipsoid against a polygon (the bsp tree basically narrows the check down to a few poly's) so I want to get ellipsoid/poly collisions working first! |

| Nehe has a good collision tutorial which helped me get collisions going in rifa. extern(sp?) converted it to bmax awhile back. not sure of a link. |

| ray/plane ray/cylinder but a start... |
