Heading to the Game Developers Conference next week? Want to look like you know what you're talking about? Then do
some reading up on the Unreal 3 engine. It's going to be one of the things we're all talking about when the curtain
comes down.
Joystiq recently ran a story about some new features the
engine is going to be offering developers. While the page we're sending you to doesn't include the most recent info, it
does include some of the other sexy features. Some of the best reading is in the physics section:
-
Rigid body physics system supporting player interaction with physical game object, ragdoll character animation, complex vehicles, and dismemberable objects.
-
All renderable materials have physical properties such as friction.
-
Physics-driven sound.
-
Fully integrated support for physics-based vehicles, including player control, AI, and networking.
