Okay, now that the easy stuff is out of the way, I guess I roll up my sleeves and dig in :) Does anyone else see this strange behaviour with the interactors?? Especially on a different platform. Or better yet, does anyone see the correct behavior with a similar setup?? I'm referring mainly to the interactor problems. I can see the geometry problems, and the core dumps, I just haven't located the code that is causing it yet.
