Hey Guys
Thanx for the prod Fabrice - just seen this post so here goes....
I've been working on a physics engine for the away3d source for a few weeks
now. I'm getting ready for a release, but there are still things i want to
fix before the whole thing gets committed. But right now the engine
supports:
axisaligned solid body physics,
Constraint-based particle dynamics,
friction, drag, bounce and magnetic coefficients for objects (and materials)
Raycast collision detection for particles,
Container collision 'sweep & prune' detection,
and i am in the process of adding:
Angular solid body physics,
custom surface collision detection for primitives,
Raycast collision detection for surfaces,
and a few other bits and pieces. The engine uses a Verlet Integrator at the
moment, but because of the advantages offered by Alexander's Traverser
methodologies to the away3d engine, this could easily be swapped out for a
Euler Integrator or whatever you fancy, on an object by object basis if
necessary.
I have taken great care to try and integrate the physics model with the
away3d code in such a way that (i hope!) is neither detrimental to those who
don't want to use it, nor overly complex to apply for those that do.
initially i will release a few demos to show what can be done, but by then
the source will be committed to the away3d svn trunk for anyone to have a
poke at.
So all in all, there are a fair few features to add, and this is possibly an
opportunity to ask whether i've missed anything out. I'd like this to be as
fully features as flash will allow (within reason) so if anyone has
suggestions, let us know!
