Blog RSS Feed Report abuse Latest News: Physics Editor ~ Part I (HD Video)

24 comments by jeffr on Jul 1st, 2009 digg this super bookmark


The latest toolset I've been working on for Overgrowth is the physics editor. There are three big pieces to this, and each is now well underway. First, users need to be able to make and manipulate simple physics primitives (such as boxes, capsules, and spheres) that can be inserted into the Overgrowth physics world. Second, we need tools to link these primitives together with joints. And third, we need a way to attach models to the newly formed physics bodies (model rigging). We will go into more detail about each of these steps a bit later, when our tools are more polished. For now, I'd just like to demo some of the fun physics things I've been playing with:


One cool thing about the physics editor is that it will also serve as the back-end for our animation editor. This will ensure that our animations are part of the physical world and can thus react to impacts and uneven terrain.

Do you guys have any questions or thoughts about the video?

Steam is one of a number of distributors who will be selling Overgrowth, including wolfire.com itself. They will be distributing the Steam version, but you can also buy Overgrowth directly from us.

We are selling it for $29.95. You can already preorder and support us directly at wolfire.com. Preordering gets you access to the weekly alphas we've been releasing, every week until we launch and access to the secret preorder forum on the wolfire forums. We will also have some more goodies for preorders later ;)

As for game length... Hard to say right now. It will be much longer than Lugaru, but I am not sure exactly what it will come down to.

a doubt....the game serial system will be the same as lugaru? or you need to buy THE GAME, not the serial key?

jeffr, the game will have lots of weapons and armor?
because on lugaru you only have:staff,sword,knife,clothes and leather armor, i d'like the game with lots and lots of armor and a really big arsenal of weapons(in my opinion).
btw, like a rpg game, you can put light, weak and fast weapons, heavy, strong and slow weapons, and mediun weapons...

good game, i received the last alpha:)
