MSPhysics 1.0.3 (16 October 2017)

faust07 · 18 Apr 2016, 17:04

Wow, what an update rate and what significant new features. Thanks!!! Let's test the best ... And another (shameless ...) request: Would it be possible to save the replay data with the model to call this stored simulation again in another session?

Announcing 0.7.0: Change Log

Here is a little turret with particle effects.

OMG it's very cool. And good the innovation on UI dialog.
I will try the "create_particle" function.

Example turret works under Windows 7, SU16 make very good. But immediate BugSplat under Windows 8.1, SU16 make (have to test more). Smoke and fire are not reproduced in Replay. And ... if the velocity is too low, the sun will never shine again ...

@PituPhysics: cool new MSPhysics models in 3D-Warehouse

How does the added curve functions (similar to SketchyPhysics) work? Can't wait to see an example because my attempts to transform SP-scripts to MSP will take years...

At first glance MSPhysics working "mostly", nicely with SPGears & Linux SU8. When Using UI only simulation tab works on Linux / Wine.

What exactly do you think? curve.skp

Yes, this is exactly what I mean. Thank you very much! The first step to this:

Hey faust, here is your birdy configured to work on MSPhysics and SketchyPhysics. I think it needs some adjustments though.

Hey Anton, this is more than I could wish. It works excellent. Many thanks also to you!
For people who want to work with the unlimited possibilities of Physics scripts, such examples are fundamental.
In addition to the new capabilities of MSP, especially the transfer of SP to MSP is interesting for me because there are so many very good models and scripts. And when you look at this example, there are significant differences in the scripts. I would like to explore them in the near future ...

@Anton: cool new MSPhysics models in 3D-Warehouse - you linked in the first post
Magnets test, copyable joints, new turret with missiles, buoyancy with flow on water surface ... - impressive!

tomasz · 26 Apr 2016, 10:27

Can we have an option to store Replay in a model, please?

faust07 · 26 Apr 2016, 12:21

And from Anton's TODO list - the fracture/split function and Twilight implementation.

Hey everyone, first post here. I have MSPhysics 0.4.0, and I have a model which I would like to use in a physics simulation. The model is a box with several protrusions and a few holes. When I run the simulation with show collision meshes enabled, the box's mesh is rendered as a box with all the empty spaces included, so objects hit the spaces between the protrusions instead of continuing through. Any help would be much appreciated!

I speak French
Excuse me my english
I want a body designated by name ? Please
I TEST get_"group_by_name(name) Does not work !!!
ex: skechiphysics FindBodyName(NAME)...

SynSuka3D · 30 Apr 2016, 20:50

findBody("name") and findGroupByName("name") ==> version MSPhysics ????, please.

Not knowing what I am doing I cannot get a good install!!

@Ralph

The file:
C:/Users/Ralph/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/MSPhysics/win64/2.0/msp_lib.so
I not being found.
I a proper installation it should be there.
How did you install the files and subfolders ?
Did you install the contents of both of the required ZIP files, keep the subfolder structure entirely as it is in the ZIP ?

Do you actually have the missing file installed ?
Open the Plugins folder and have a look...
C:/Users/Ralph/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins

Compare the ZIP file's contents with what's in Plugins...
All files are needed...

Ralphxyz · 2 May 2016, 19:41

Thanks TIG, C:/Users/Ralph/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/MSPhysics/win64/2.0/msp_lib.so is there!!

There was no "installation" I just downloaded the zip file, unzipped and copied to the Plugins folder.

The "missing" file msp_lib.so is the MSPhysics\win64\2.0 folder.

I'll try again this time un zipping directly to the plugins folder possible something was missed with the copy paste but the reported missing file is there.

What windows version and sketchup are you using, Ralphxyz?
