A physics engine I've been developing
« on: January 17, 2010, 05:30:28 PM »



This may or may not have something to do with RA3.

Put this onto your signature if you were part of this crappy fad in '03.

No. Soft-body physics coded from scratch in Python.

That's interesting. What do you  have planned for it, or is it just a personal project?

It's mostly me learning how to program soft body physics engines. Next step are collisions (+qtrees for optimizations), then comes 3d. And then... we'll see.

You made the whole thing yourslef?
Nice, I always wanted to learn programming but my laziness is a MAJOR wall in my way...
If you can spare the time I have more freetime after January, I will still take enough time to do The Amazing Rage. You see my temporary job ends on 29th.

Nice, Serge.  Whenever you can, I would appreciate a look through your py Soft Body PE...

Are you just playing around;.... you're not really starting from scratch are you? :eek:

This is from scratch. After I do some optimizations, I'm gonna take care of collisions.

Massive project.  Daunting,...to say the least. :confused:

Quite Impressive, :bigsmile: ...


Thanks, Serge. :mrgreen:    (I envy your time....)
 
 


Q. Is this PE better in Python than C++?

Of course not, but Python is better for rapid development. Once I have the system working stable (and it's more-or-less complete), I'll starting porting the engine to C / C++.


Also, thanks to effe I have made the constraint system more precise today, but it has also became a little bit unstable, I'll have to work it out.
