All these are really nice. I just wonder is this ending device also not animated as the one in the other video? Also on this u want to criticize that you just used a desktop recorder cause this would be more fun to watch if it was nicer textures and lighting etc. Love the physics tough and i guess thats the whole point with the video so, good job! Thumbs up. PS. Do you know if u can do anything like this in Autodesk Maya? Thats what I'm using for 3D. XD

neither are animated, its a real time component of blender 3d that allows for physics simulations and game programing. The bullet engine - the first one was a capture of the physics data so i could render each frame, it took too long so this one was just a recording of it playing in the real time enviorment and sped up alot.

You would need some kind of physics or realtime application or plugin for autodesk, im not familar with those. I used free program named blender 3d.

It looks like the last 5 seconds of my video got screwed up. After viewing it please scroll to the end for one screen of credits. Thanks.

nice but too slow

[darkelfv]

I wanted people to see what all was going on. The realtime runs for 15 minutes on my computer. :)

Thanks, How many inside jokes can you find? I will give you a hint, the number on the dinner special is 42.

Whats wrong with turning off a lamp by hand, is that not easier? Just a suggestion.

[Slntthndr]

liked the other one better, but keep the music

[Dreadin88]

wow. truly intolerable to watch. good job though, looks complicated to make.

[roeas29]

Wow! That was really good! Lol I loved the cows.

[Site4Animation]

WAY TOO SLOW!  Where are all the lighting effects? I see no shadows or decent textures. Pretty good though.
