Sketchy physics book

some body wrote a book about SketchyPhysics

no sure if they even know the name of the engine that power it.

Newton is the best!

In these example SP is using Newton 1.53. So much improvement in performance will be made if it is upgraded to 3.13.

In the last example with the chains, joints are very flexible and cause the chains to stretch out. It would be nice if they were more stiff. Can you give an advice to make them less flexible, so they don't stretch out as much? There are many sketchy physics models with tank threads, with each piece connected by a hinge joint, but the threads are not stiff enough. They either stretch or with one good push using the pick and drag tool the chain goes crazy.

Here is another example to see NewtonDynamics and SP in action:

But the video does show the impressive features & stability of newton in a great way.

And on the sketch physics site here: https://code.google.com/p/sketchyphysics/ It does state that it's using the Newton SDK.
