Question on ContactMesh

I was looking at contact geometries and found an example of a ContactMesh at http://simtk-confluence.stanford.edu:80 ... ctGeometry

Code: Select all

<ContactMesh name="block">
	<body_name> block </body_name>
	<location> 0 0 0 </location>
	<orientation> 0 0 0 </orientation>
	<filename> blockRemesh192.obj </filename>
</ContactMesh>

I was wondering what the filename and the obj file are used for if anyone wouldn't mind explaining

The .obj file defines the vertices and faces of the mesh (see, for example, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavefront_.obj_file).
