I am currently developing a Physics Engine that can be implimented on any platform, PC, Mac, PS3, PS2, GC, Xbox, Xbox 360 and of course Wii (too name a few). This will be a rigid body, interactive impulse based physics engine. I will try and optimize it as much as possible but I'm not promising it will perfect, although, I once read the only thing that is perfect exists only in ones mind. Enough said, what does will it do!? Particle Systems Uses vector, defferential and integral calculus. Will feature the Orthonormal bias for a more realistic particle effect. Most of this system is already done, easy Implementation, you can custom set the projectile properties. Heres a small snippet. particle->setMass(1); particle->setDamping(damping); particle->setAcceleration(Engine::Vector3::GRAVITY); particle->clearAccumulator(); Laws of Momentum Our friend Newton has done all the work here just have to program it. For those who have no clue what this is, its about stuff moving around and making it look real. General Forces These include gravity, drag and other force generators. Springs Elasticity, buoyancy, buoyancy force generators and all things springy. Simple Collision Resolution The Collision Direction and the Contact Normal, Collision Detection,Time-Division Engines and Resolving Interpenetration are just a few of the things that will be implemented here. Mass-Aggregate Physics This is a tricky one, I should get it eventually though. This kind of physics is rope bridges and cables, friction and blobs. Dynamic Rigid body System The implementation of a full Dynamic rigid body physics system will make for quick resolution of contacts as well as the ability to simulate all manner of situations from car racing, flight simulation and sailing (if you flow that way). Advanced Collision Detection Two separate Collision systems will let the user decided weather they need these more advanced systems or which here are a few; bounding volumes, binary space partitioning (for indoors), oct and quad trees for large terrain physics checks as well as multi-resolution maps. Contact Generation This is collision of all types of objects Point–Face Contacts, Edge–Edge Contacts, Edge–Face Contacts, Face–Face Contacts and Early-Outs which can be implemented in Colliding Two Spheres, sphere and the plane, box and plane, box and box, box and sphere and general Polyhedra. Rag doll Simulation of the human body without the body having any effect on its own movement. Resting contacts, collision resolution processes and all manner of tricky words that people don't understand. Fracture physics Fractal physics that split boxes after resolving collision and such forth. Explosive Physics Possibly the implimentation of impulse explosive physics with compression and concussion effects although I'm not sure how this one will go. Interested to hear your thoughts on it.http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,105,105#msg-105Thu, 17 Sep 2026 03:10:52 +0200 Phorum 5.2.23 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,105,305#msg-305 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,105,305#msg-305 WiiPhlex Homebrew GeneralThu, 07 Aug 2008 09:23:41 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,105,304#msg-304 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,105,304#msg-304(almost) always available for testing :D.]]> Dykam Homebrew GeneralThu, 07 Aug 2008 09:22:40 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,105,303#msg-303 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,105,303#msg-303 WiiPhlex Homebrew GeneralThu, 07 Aug 2008 09:18:38 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,105,302#msg-302 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,105,302#msg-302Do you've plans to buy a Wii?]]> Dykam Homebrew GeneralThu, 07 Aug 2008 09:14:18 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,105,301#msg-301 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,105,301#msg-301 WiiPhlex Homebrew GeneralThu, 07 Aug 2008 09:06:23 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,105,300#msg-300 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,105,300#msg-300 Dykam Homebrew GeneralThu, 07 Aug 2008 09:04:20 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,105,298#msg-298 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,105,298#msg-298 WiiPhlex Homebrew GeneralThu, 07 Aug 2008 09:00:43 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,105,297#msg-297 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,105,297#msg-297
