What is the story with the newest version of Sketchyphysics?
-
Sorry that I have not been following the developments recently. I have heard that there is a new version of sketchyphysics 3x coming out, but not much else. Would it be possible for me to obtain more details? (I.e. the coding change, expected release date, etc.)
Again, sorry for not keeping up with the changes.

Lots of new stuff is coming, mainly revolving around the scripting! Larger scripting window, different kinds of variables, a number of new events, dynamic joint connection and disconnection, state changes using script, including whether the object is hidden, teleportation, control over the object's velocity and torque, and the ability to set the 'air resistance' (general damp on movement) for individual objects. Also included is the long-awaited ability to individually set the density of objects!
Please correct me if anything here is wrong, and remember, knowledge of SP-centered Ruby Script will be neccessary for some more advanced functions.

Thats a good rundown Wacov! I have been updating this thread with details:

Do you think, maybe, in the far future, you could re-build SP with PhysX? I'm not talking SPIV here, but it'd be a good move in the long run; Collada would allow exporting, and you could add support for those lovely deformable bodies
(I mean, if you plan to keep going with SP
) -
I dont know... Maybe. It would be a big task.
