Matali Physics Basic is a non-commercial edition of the engine. This edition simplifies development of physics-based, non-commercial computer games and is available for download at no charge. Matali Physics Basic engine key features:

Fully Manage, Flexible and Easy to Use

Matali Physics Basic can be easily integrated into your game project for XNA, Silverlight, OpenTK, SlimDX or SharpDX. Fully managed, will help you create unique, cross-platform games. Equips with mechanisms to create imaginary or real-life complex objects (inanimate such as airplanes, cars, ships, etc. or animate such as humans, animals, insects, etc.) is not limited to a fixed number of templates.

Supports Fully Dynamic, Destructible Environments

Matali Physics Basic supports destruction of any complex object. In extreme case, the entire physics scene can be destroyed. The engine supports groups of object, convex decomposition, breakable constraints, dynamic deformation of heightmap.

Supports Physical AI and Objects Behavior Control

User controllers offered by the engine allow you to implement, efficient waypoints and pathfinding in dynamically changing environments. Each object in the engine can analyze the environment and determine what sees. Support for force-feedback, switches, lifetime physical objects makes easy to control the behavior and interaction of objects.

Supports Animation

Constraints and user controllers offered by the engine allow you to create advanced, procedural animation of complex objects. The engine supports control constraints (distance and angles) and modeling constraints through the additional mode of deformation.

Supports Physics-Driven Sound

Matali Physics Basic provides all data needed for audio playback during hitting, rolling and sliding of physics objects, as well as data required to play sounds related to the behavior of physics objects. Together with the engine is available a demo that shows complex scenes, where the sounds are controlled by the physics engine.

Powered by Matali Render Basic

Matali Render Basic is a cross-platform visualization module for Matali Physics Basic engine. This module is responsible for processing light sources, advanced shader effects and it is the default visualization subsystem for this edition of the engine. With this module, you can see how to integrate your own visualization system with Matali Physics Basic or you can also use it together with Matali Physics Basic directly in your own games. With this module, we can also test how Matali Physics Basic engine cooperates with modern visualization modules and thus provide you with better technical support.

Multi-threaded, Multi-platform, Web-Enabled

Matali Physics Basic is optimized for multi-core processors and is available for: Windows XP/Vista/7, Windows 8 (Desktop), Xbox 360, Windows Phone 7.x, web browsers, OS X, Linux and FreeBSD. The engine offers an out-of-the-box support for XNA, Silverlight, OpenTK, SlimDX and SharpDX.
