BEPUphysics

Thank you for your fast and detailed answer. Now I've got even more reasons to look forward to version 2 of your engine.

Hi, long time no see. :) I've got a question regarding the conversion of static meshes to meshes with rigidbodies. Imagine a small town where one house has a fence. For performance reasons the whole town (including the fence) is baked into one static mesh. Is it possible or even feasible (in your en...

Thank you. The time in the URL seems wrong, though. The video is just 1 hour and 24 minutes long. Did you mean 1:11:17?

Have you (or anyone else) seen indications that the unity toolchain can emit SIMD instructions, apart from the mono runtime's own jit intrinsics? I don't know anything about that, sorry. Regarding unity, this is pretty promising: https://twitter.com/xoofx/status/874258186597003264 Well, that's good...

That sounds really interesting! I would love it so much to replace Unity's PhysX with your engine. Keep up the good work!

BTW: Are you working fulltime on your project? May I ask how you do this? Are you rich?

Hey Norbo,

are there any updates regarding version 2.0 of your engine? I'm really looking forward to your next iteration so I just have to ask.

Greetings

Sounds great!

Side note: I just read that Unity is planning to support 32 bit index buffers in the future as well.

Hello, I'm currently refactoring the code of my current Unity 3D project and added a mechanism to split up large meshes (more than 64k vertices) into smaller pieces due to Unity using unsigned shorts for their vertex indices. As far as I can see BEPU 1.0 is using ints for its collision meshes, so I ...

Long time no see! :) Can I somehow motivate you to extend the RayHit struct by an index and the Barycentric Coordinate of the triangle a corresponding ray hit? :) If not, do you plan something like this for version 2.0 of your engine? I ask this because I am trying to use QueryAccelerator and FindRa...

28? Impressive! Keep up the good work!

InstancedMesh? Aweseome! I'm curious when I will stumble upon a real limitation of your engine. So far I'm really impressed even by the design of BEPU Physics. May I ask how old you are? Did you develop other physics engines before? Note: If you tell me that you're just 20 years old, I might get dep...

Ah, good to know. For entities it was quite easy to add an additional method Teleport() . What about a StaticMesh instance? Would I have to set its WorldTransform property? That in turn would trigger recalculations of the BoundingBoxes for each node in its MeshBoundingBoxTree and I guess that I can'...

If I have to teleport all dynamic and static objects in BEPU Physics (to avoid floating point imprecisions), will I have to be aware of certain problems? For example does teleporting create infinite forces? Will the inner state of BEPU Physics change, e.g. will previous collisions be invalid?

Yup! Awesome! I'm really looking forward to version 2.0 and I definitely will use your engine instead of PhysX, now. :) I just have to investigate those uv and normal lookup suggestions - like bypassing the Space.RayCast and so on - a bit more. [...] but I sympathize with the developers. Making a s...

As always: Thank you for your detailed answer!
