Tutorial: How to create 3D contact with PTC Creo Parametric

Do you need to create and animate Newton's Cradle or Carambol's shots - here is the short tutorial for you

... you can Download 3D data (Carambol_shots-creo2.zip) and investigate mechanism :) or you can Download STEP/IGES file and try to render your own images

Dear Mr. pallfy,

Could you perhaps explain when to use cam-connection and when 3d-contact?
For example if I simulate a vehicle on a track, 3d contact is no good. Though a ball rolling works fine with 3d contact!
