Rigid Body Collection assigned to the solver, if an y.
To assig n a Rigid Body Collect ion to the solver,
click this button and then selecting a collection in
any view p or t.
Highlight—Click this button to cause the
constraints in the Constraints list to momentarily
displayintheviewportsasifselected.
Constra ints—Liststhenamesoftheconstraints
currently in the solver.
Pick Lets you add a constraint to the solver. Click
this button, then in the viewport move the curs or
over the constraint you would like to add to the
solver. If the object can be used as a constraint, the
cursor changes from an arrow to a cross and you
can select the object to add it to the solver.
Add—Lets you add one or more constraints from
the scene to the solver. Click the button to open up
the Select New C onstraints To Add dialog. Make
aselectionintheprovidedlist,andthenaddthe
constraints to the solver by pressing the Select
button.
Delete—Lets you remove constraints from the
solver. Highlight the constraints to remove from
the s olver in the Constraints list and then click this
button.
Deactivation Threshold—Lets you specify a
special deact ivation threshold for all the rigid
bodies constrained by the solver’s constraints.
Objects in a Constraint S olver are activated and
deactivated together; this parameter specifies
how aggressive the deact ivation is. A value of 0.0
disables deactivation. For more information about
deactivation, see Havok 1 World/Havok 3 World
Rollout (page 2–808).
Disabled—When on, disables all the constraints
in this solver.
Reset Default Values—Sets Deactivation Threshold
and Disabled to their respective default values.

The Rag Doll constraint lets you realistically
simulate the behavior of body joints, such as hips,
shoulders, and ankles. Once you decide the degree
of movement a join t should have, you can model
it by specifying limit ing values for the Rag Doll
constraint.
