Penumbra Overture is now open-source

[Yezide]

Just wanted to notify all that Penumbra Overture is now open source! Since penumbra uses Newton for physics it might be of special interest to people here. Notable stuff are things like e a custom character collider, a sound effect system (for sliding, collisions, etc) and a quite complex (entirely physics based) interaction system. It might also be helpful for general implementation of Newton into a game/engine.

The source code can be gotten here:

And more information can be found here:

I hope this will be of use to somebody

PS: Here is a video of me explaining some of the physics stuff present: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ux4OwkS9ybA

nice,

I will check it out, I might even get some pointers to incorporate in some of the joints.
specially the player controller.
