SUMMARY

Meqon is a real-time physics simulator that accurately simulates objects as if they are real. It primarily focuses on rigid body physics, along with liquid and cloth simulations. Unlike traditional games, Meqon does not have specific goals, making it an interactive experience. Competing with Havok, which requires a game like Half-Life 2 for demonstration, Meqon offers a unique approach to physics-based user interaction.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of real-time physics simulation concepts
  • Familiarity with rigid body physics
  • Basic knowledge of liquid and cloth simulation techniques
  • Experience with interactive software environments
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the features of Meqon 1.4 and its applications in game development
  • Explore Havok's physics engine and its integration with games like Half-Life 2
  • Learn about the principles of rigid body dynamics in physics simulations
  • Investigate the impact of physics-based interactions on user experience in gaming
USEFUL FOR

Game developers, physics simulation enthusiasts, and anyone interested in enhancing interactive experiences through advanced physics engines.

meqon is a real time physics simulator.
It seams acurate and simulates objects
on the computer as if they are real.

http://meqon.com/downloadarea/meqon-demos-1.4.zip

It is much like a first person game only there is no goal its just
clever and interactive.

Here are some screenshots

and read about it here:

dosent need installing
(I hate apps you have to install)

Does primarily "rigid body" pysics
and a liquid and cloth simulation.

Havock is the other company compeeting in this field but
to show them you will need a game called "half life 2"

These two combines kick started objects being introduced into
games that have this level of physics based user interaction.

what do you think?

How about providing us with a link to the documentation, rather than a link to the download.

I'm not going to download a zipped binary without more information. Aside from not knowing whether or not the program will be interesting (what particular aspects of "physics" is this package simulating?), there's the concern that the program will be a trojan horse.
