Has anyone implemented this engine with jiglibx by chance?

Thank you Chr0n1x, I am thrilled to see someone as talented as you interested in this series. I follow your entries in the HazyMind series and your personal blog as well.

I have not tried any of the code on the XBOX360 yet. The game I am creating is designed to run on PC, I have just been doing the small extra work to help make moving to an XBOX easier later. I would very much appreciate any information you might have on a good physics engine for the XBOX, I have had some mixed suggestions so far.

Hi, nice series. Have you tried the physics code on the Xbox360?
I was under the impression that BulletX had some big performance issues on the Xbox360.

Sorry KaBaL just writing the new articles as I think of them. I do think I am going to take a look at the JigLibX though. It appears to have some pretty nice features.

Nice to see the addition, I think your spying on me though, I just spent all weekend looking up wich physics engine I would use in my system, or if I would be better off simply writing my own basic one. ( My game idea doesn't need realistic physics (yet)) I was pushing for Newton's as well, but ended up going with JigLibX. It has some performance issues, but works great for what I need, and is already in 2.0 compatible. Looking forward to see how you actually end up integrating it into the engine. Gives me something strong to compare to.
