Other CryEngine3 Soft-Body Vehicle Physics Mod

Just been linked to this. Its from the people behind the Rigs of Rods vehicle simulator and I think it looks awesome

 

If that stuff was real time then it is about the best I have seen. Thanks for posting.

 

amazing car physics.

A few flawed bits, a couple of times it was overly 'floppy' in the air before landing/impact, but on the whole the best I've ever seen.

Would make a great racing game.

 

Would make an excellent burnout game.

 

Can I just play this? Sandbox crashing. I'm fine with that.

 

Real time at 100 fps it seems. There is an engine with a huge amount of potential! I wonder what the draw distances are like?

 

A new video has been released:

 

I was thinking, could this be used for accident reconstruction?

 

I would have thought that there would be far too many variables in every crash, such as the crumple zones of the cars, air resistance, surface conditions etc. But, to give a vague idea, I don't see why not..

 

Grand Theft Auto!

 

Not nearly enough detail, but for gaming it is a definite step up.

 

Thanks both, I hadn't considered all the variables.

 

bout the only flae i see is the hinges/joints are a tad too flimsy. maybe add a tiny amount of rigidity and it would look even better.

 

Looks like it was made from one material. Wonder how it would fair with different strengths and properties.

Very good though.

Can someone get Reflections Interactive on the phone? They've got a new engine to make a new Driver. Awesome.

 

I love soft bodies....

I'm pretty sure, and don't quote me on this, that I just had a happygasm.

 

That looks amazing, not normally impressed by tech demos but that definitely needs to be in all vehicular gaming in the future. Somehow I doubt Battlefield 4 will feature this (a shame) but would be good.

The cars seemed a little light, bouncing all over the place and picking up too much airtime on flat, if bumpy roads, but I'm sure that can be tweaked.
