"NVIDIA PhysX technology is the preeminent physics solution available today, and it makes perfect sense to integrate this functionality directly into BigWorld Technology 2.0," said
At its core, NVIDIA PhysX technology was designed to give developers, animators, level designers, and artists unprecedented creative control over character and object physical interactions by allowing them to author scalable physics effects and preview them in real time. With NVIDIA PhysX technology, game worlds literally come to life: walls can be torn down, glass can be shattered, trees bend in the wind, and water flows with body and force. PhysX technology works across all major gaming platforms, including Nintendo Wii, Playstation 3, Xbox 360, and the PC, and can be accelerated by both the CPU and can be accelerated by both the CPU and any CUDA(TM)-enabled NVIDIA GPU.
"The pairing of NVIDIA PhysX technology with the BigWorld Technology 2.0 development suite will assist in the creation of truly unique online gaming environments and virtual worlds," said
