Sphere-terrain collision.

Terrain collision was a little harder than I thought it would be. This is owing to the fact that the terrain is a concave body, and many contacts are possible with a single sphere and the terrain. Contrast this with … Continue reading →

The physics engine (made from scratch!).

Posted on by olhovsky
350 spheres colliding against 4 intersecting planes.

In the last few days I wrote a physics engine from scratch using a technique that no other 3D XNA physics engine (that I know of) uses yet: Speculative contact continuous collision detection. I’ve been looking for a good physics … Continue reading →
