CaronteFX: High Fidelity Physics for Games

MADRID, March 17, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

    In February 2016, Next Limit Technologies announced the official release of CaronteFX,
a highly integrated physically-based simulation/animation Editor Extension for Unity. The
software was used extensively in the official Unity 2016 demo
[http://unity3d.com/es/pages/adam?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=demos-showcase-2016-03-15-Global-AdamPartOne ]
, the real-time rendered short film "Adam" which
premiered at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco March 14-18, 2016.

    CaronteFX provides the necessary tools to create high quality off-line cinematics that
can be played later during the game. It is compatible with Unity 5 or higher, both
Free & Pro. The core technology behind CaronteFX includes:

       
        - High physical accuracy: The CaronteFX engine includes the most precise mesh to
          mesh contact algorithm, which allows it to solve highly complex problems while
          respecting the laws of physics.
        - Highly controllable fabric simulation capable of creating light, smooth, heavy and
          rigid effects.
        - High quality collision detection and contact response (convex and concave geometry
          support).
        - Robust soft body simulation. Ability to convert low resolution mesh kinematics to high
          resolution.
        - Versatile joints that can connect any kind of body: rigid/rigid, rigid/soft,
          rigid/static, rigid/animated, rigid/fabrics, etc. Breaking behavior and plastic
          deformation. Automatic modes for joint creation. Kinematic animated GameObjects
          support.
        - Excellent quality/speed ratio. Quality settings can be adjusted by user depending on
          the time available.

    To see the full list of features and specs, consult the CaronteFX website
[http://j.mp/CaronteFX ].

    "CaronteFX is an unparalleled tool for simulating highly-accurate physics within the
Unity editor. It's user-friendly interface and robust library of components make the
creation of the most complex and realistic destruction and cloth effects intuitive and
fast. And that's only the beginning." 

                                -Bradley Weiers, Demo Artist at Unity

    CaronteFX is now available for purchase through the Unity Asset Store
[https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/en/#!/content/56666 ].
