What does the void* refer to in the function: void Game :: Response(CollisionRecord& rkRecord0, int iT0, CollisionRecord& rkRecord1, int iT1, void* ); This is a static function that handles a collision where the CollisionRecord 1 and 2 are the objects that collided and the ints are the triangles that first collided. I dont know what the last void* even means.

sorry I meant to say what void* means in general

I think it means a generic pointer of a type that you need to cast to a different type.

Maybe i wasnt clear enough

Or, a generic pointer type to which you cast from a specific type.
