I have found a nice video regarding triangular surface optimization.

  
For the result Masmachine is needed. I have installled Kangaroo physics 2.4.2.0 but it doesnt include Meshmachine. Anyone can tell me how can I get it?

In the video it appears that Meshmachine is part of Kangaroo Phisics. But after I install Kangaroo Physics 2.4.2.0 Meshmachine does not appear. My problem is that I dont now how to install, and where can I find the version can be found in the video.

Whether you believe it or not, K2 does not include meshmachine.

I did not say that. I am just saying it is not likely that in this video contains a 5 year old stuff.
