Re: Help with rigid bodies.

A couple of things to check:

1. Is something forcing the rigid body through the passive? If you have another object pressing down on it from above, eventually something will break and it will pass through one of them.

2. Are the objects on the same collision layer?

3. Are collisions enabled for the rigid body solver?

4. Which direction are the normals of the plane facing? Try using a poly cube instead of a NURBS plane--a cube has better-defined 'inside' and 'outside,' so sometimes collisions are more reliable.

Hope something in there helps.
