Tony Rowe marvels at the physics engine

Post by madppiper »

So, one of the Lead-Testers on Trespasser just wrote to us on facebook:

"Computer-simulated, bipedal, physics-based motion is STILL hard. Why did we ever try to do this with Trespasser back in the 90s?"

He also posted a nifty little video :)

Very nice! I'm impressed with how much inherency we've been able to discover and synthesize. I am curious what made the various animates stop attempting to walk when they began to and actually fell over...
