is there any way to use this with a 64 bit system, im using a mac and its only available in 64 bit

SketchyPhysics works only on 32 bit systems. No way to port it.
Please try MSPhysics by plugin author Anton S.
Search for MSPhysics under Board index - Plugins.

Hello.
In MSPhysics, you can stop motion and freeze the scene.
After pressing the STOP button, the figures remain in their places and do not return to their original positions.
This is very convenient if you want to find the position of the object after its movement.
Does it make it possible to make such a "freeze" button in SketchyPhysics?
The "freeze" button is a stop button2 (End simulation without re setting positions nor erasions emitted bodies).

I'm not sure if anyone is developing SketchyPhysics any further. But if I remember correctly, you can achieve the same result by pausing the simulation and saving a copy of the model during the pause. The state of the model is then frozen in this copy.

Hello.
How to change settings for ( corkscrew joint ).
Thanks!

QUESTION: How small can an object be before sketchyphysics no longer recognizes it as accurate or active, etc? I made a model and when I scale it down things do not move anymore. I even changed the densities etc but they need really high densities to, for example, drop. That makes everything very heavy.

So, it seems as if light object (say if I were to model a ping pong ball at 1/8th scale[example]), the physics are no longer accurate or at times even work.

Just need to know what those limits are so maybe I can model things larger, then scale them afterwards, knowing they will work still. Thank you very much!

HI Chris, I would like to know how to program the AND function in the representation of the automation as an attachment. This is a paper cutter which should only cut a sheet if the operator's two hands are busy pressing the two buttons <<a>> AND <<b>> at the same time.
With :

Servo29773 to raise or lower the operator's right hand.
Piston 19574 to press one or two buttons depending on the position of the operator's right arm.

Thank you very much . Good year !
Jean-Luc

Is SketchyPhysics available for Sketchup 2022?
