Re: how to debug and fix NAN values

Hi, Hampa have you found the solution ? I have simliar problem.

I'm curious maybe you have found something that would help me.

Best regards,
Lewap

    text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Hi Bram, It is the dNormalize4 (b->q)
    in void dxStepBody (dxBody *b, dReal h) in util.cpp. This is called
    from dInternalStepIsland_x2. I checked the values when entering the
    dxStepBody function and (depending on scenario) the lvel, avel, facc
    or tacc values have ended up as nan. With this I think I need to
    figure out where in dInternalStepIsland_x2 the values are
    introduced. /hampa On 22 Oct 2007, at 11:45 PM, Bram Stolk wrote:
