PhysX For Developers

Why do you need it?

PhysX by AGEIA delivers the most advanced gaming physics which define a totally new level of dynamic motion and interaction in next generation titles. This means thousands of objects colliding with each other, fog that oozes around characters in motion, cloth and clothing that interact with the environment, and gushing fluids that tear through the gaming world. If you want to take your game to the next level, there's no alternative - you need PhysX by AGEIA.

We'll Give You The Tools

The AGEIA PhysX SDK features everything you'd expect from a leading physics middleware package and a whole lot more.

You Supply The Imagination

Leading developers are rarely content to stay confined to the basic examples of game physics. AGEIA fully supports taking the SDK in new and exciting directions.

Physically simulated cloth, for example, makes an excellent medium for realistic foliage, webs and even cables and wires in addition to being a great way to simulate flags and clothing.
