Physics engine software player Havok has struck a ground-breaking deal to power the Lego Digital Designer download facility that will allow Lego enthusiasts to create custom-built Lego designs.
Fans of the iconic building bricks can make vehicles, buildings and robots from scratch, using the LEGO Digital Designer to choose size, colours and other design concepts for their creations. Users can add LEGO minifigures and finishing touches to their constructions and preview their finished products online.
Prior to purchasing their customized set at LegoFactory.com, users can custom design their own packaging. The Havok Physics software development kit (SDK) will be used to power realistic visual effects in all animations on the Lego Digital Designer download.
HAVOK!!!!!!!!!! THEY ARE GOING TO PUT THE HAVOK PHYSICS SDK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!! I WANTED TO DOWNLOAD THAT SDK BEFORE BUT NEVER DOWNLOADED IT! I'VE SEEN IT IN ACTION BEFORE, AND IS VERY GREAT WHEN WITH INTEL PROCESSOR!!!!
*Screams like a Fangirl*
Did you also note that it was a four year contract with Havok? So MSRR may be right upon the fact this LDD will be incorperated into LU, since the animations of LDD, and then "Building" them will put the Havok Physics engine able to make them "animate" towards finished product.
Also Omega Blademan, the Havok Physics Engine SDK is downloaded with the LDD itself, so there won't be a needed upgrade of your computer, If you do have an intel processor, then your lucky since Havok as designed purposely for Intel Processor. And that's how I happened to Know about Havok with the Intel Partnership.
This will be great!!!!! LU IF be incorperated with the Havok Physics engine will BLOW AWEAY any competition and revolutionize LU itself.
These games were incorperated with the Physics Engine:
-Biokshock
-Halo 2
-Halo 3
-Dead Rising
-Happy Feet
-Fable 2
-F.E.A.R
-Destroy all Humans 2
