Title: Open Source Physics
Post by: benthehutt on October 11, 2005, 07:16:15 PM
Right now I'm looking for some good physics modeling.  Does anyone know where I could find an open-source physics engine?  I don't mean like gaming, though games probably do have the most accurate physics engines.  Anyway, just wondering if anyone had ever heard of such a project...

Turns out there are tons of them:

If anyone is interested, I'd like to write one someday.  I think it'd be easiest in plain old flash actionscript though.  It's pretty powerful, and you don't have to worry about the graphical side of things--it's taken care of nice and easy....
