Source Physics Experiments! Created 14 years ago2010-09-04 09:01:27 UTC by Tetsu0

Instead of posting just journal after journal of youtube videos with random physics stuff in them, how about joining them all together in a thread.

(hopefully can be stikied if popular?)

post screenshots, links to downloads, videos, whatever of any source physics projects you have going on. Have any developmental questions? Throw em in here.

I'll start it off with a few links:

Dont even know what to call this one -

And it's not physics, but so what-

The Pod Racer is jerky as hell, but bloody awesome looking. You could do a remake of this game:

Source pod racer is totally awesome.

I had that game back in the day!!

Well once i get the bugs outta the pod racer I'm going to try to re-create anakin's pod.

Are you going to have the vanes open on the corners like his pod does?

I'll have to watch the movie to get all the details. and i don't exactly have all the correct props, but i DO have the air brakes opening (3 yellow things in front) when you turn.

Phys thrusters are hard to REALLY control well..
I wish there was a phys_hover
Like g-mod, but that's cheating.

Don't know if it'll help, but a trigger_vphysics_motion brush can limit the velocity of items inside it, including rotation and gravity. Could be useful for stabilising things.

<3 you commieman i'm gonna go try that.
