Does anyone know of any Physics programs that interfaces with 3D-Studio that
allows for input of mass/velocity/direction to calculate motion and interaction
of other objects. Dynamic Motion Module by Positron Publishing may have
established this capability for 3D-Studio.
Does anyone have Positron Publishings' phone number or address.
Thank You
Positron Publishing's number is 1 800 365 1002. At this time they are still
developing the 3DS version of their Dynamic Motion Module. We just got the
Lightwave 3D version of it where I work and it's still a little buggy. But when
I does work it's really awesome. I think that the 3DS version will be easier
for the programmers to make because of the IPAS Software Developers Kit and the
way that IPASes are in general. But then
again I am not a programmer (nor an architect <g>). Positron seems to hope
for the DMM to be out this fall as far as I can tell.

Hi George,
You may also wish to check with the folks at Knowledge Revolution… their
"Working Model" program exports physically-based data in a variety of formats,
including Wavefront, Macromedia Three-D, and tab-delimited text. One of those
would likely be translatable into a format you can use. Working Model's
designed for both engineers and animators, and is pretty durn wild. You can
reach the KR people at 415 553 8153.
