Gravity Simulation

[jgabase]

Hi, rutski89 I would like to know about the algorithm you are using to move particles. Could you please send me the source code?... ok ok I will have enough with the Physics algorithms ...XD

[OverG88]

Amazing!

[SuperMinorMiner]

15 bucks!

[NewInfinityRecursion]

nice dont give if for free :)

[rutski89]

Thanks for the quick feedback guys. Based on these comments, I think I'll be putting it up for $10, or $9.99 if I want to be gimmicky ;-)

Hopefully people like slugfly who really want it will find that a great deal, and people like TheWinnieston might find the price low enough that they'll be willing to whip out their check cards. I might also include PDF write ups packaged with the program that explain the physics behind it all, for some extra value.

I'll post back soon when it's ready.

I think this would make a great ap. I've looked around for one with little luck. I'd say your asking price would depend on the GUI. If you've got a game's quality GUI that's easy to understand and navigate, with a lot of options, you might get away with 40-60 bucks... but I'm an astronomy geek and games geek so, that market aside, I don't know how many people would pay that much for a gravity simulation.

Hey everyone,

This is the original poster of this video. Lots of people have asked what software this is, and the answer is that this isn't any public sort of program (yet). I made this just for fun using C and OpenGL.

Since there seems to be demand I'll put a proper GUI on this and release it online for a modest price. What sort of price might you guys be willing to pay I wonder?

Email me at rutski89@gmail.com if you want to be put on an announcement list to be notified when it's ready.

@rutski89 sent.

I've been making 1 myself with Java since that's the only language I know atm.

[TheWinnieston]

@rutski89 Price? What!??!?!?!?

I was thinking of posting it for download FREE!!!!

I mean, it's really good and all, but I just don't know why I would pay $50 for something that I could make using Python with a bit of research.

I don't mean to sound all snotty, but I thought that the program would be FREE.

Think about it.

@TheWinnieston he just wants some back thats all

[fuglypump]

GRRR what is the name of this program?

[TheWinnieston]

Can you email me the program?

That's really cool to simulate how a stray asteroid could tear apart, say, Saturn's rings.

@TheWinnieston

How about shooting one towards Saturn?? :p

[kharsur]

can you tell me the name of this software?

[thejiddy512]

:D

[slugfly]

What are you using for this? This is so cool!



[Neueregel]

Nice. Kepler's laws should apply as well. 

[BloodyiBall0]

this way would be the only way of escaping a black hole with a really advanced space ship

[technoch33s3c4k3]

second simulation is like a dawof planet i think

[personzorz]

Why is energy not conserved? It seems to me that most of the balls in later simulations lost energy, while a few gained a lot. Not necessarily a lack of conservation...

[RudiMedia]

Nice, which integration method did you use?

[IMMMedved]

People in comments are retarded

[answerOfstupids]

Whats with some particles minding there own business.

[Bicho04830]

Is Python? What library? Do you have the source?

[1ihateyoutub]

i don't undesrstand is this the phisical way that particles move and create a gravity effect?

[89Ingle]

the gravity of the larger sphere pulled the smaller into it's gravitational area and then slingshots it back out into the space amazing : )

[gyrocam]

Ah the new version of Newton's Aquarium. Very interesting.

[tjdaman1]

sweet what program / software did you use to do this? i would like to know how to do it myself (:

[Unlucky137]

I want... haha, want, my bad, I NEED THIS SOFTWARE!!! PLEASE!

[kranker114]

O_O =) Where did you get this from?

[taqyon]

Wow love it. Amazing the patterns!

What software did you use?
