Newton Tutorials

Newton 2.0

The Tutorials for Newton 2.0 are built on a common tutorial framework written in C++ provided with the SDK. The framework utilizes OpenGL (which is not required to use newton) and all samples are configured for compilation with Microsoft Visual Studio 6 and Microsoft Visual Studio .NET. A basic understanding of C++, 3D Graphics, and Newtonian Physics are assumed.

Note: you need to download the latest verion of Newton and set an enviromnet variable name NEWTON_HOME to point to where the newton engine SDK is in you disk.
A typical enviroment varaibel looks like this:
NEWTON_HOME=C:\Newton_200\NewtonSDK\sdk
