    It blocks it for me, make sure you use a lot of it, just like any insulator.

    Download Version 27.3 - legacy for windows. Use this if your computer is too old for the first one or you run windows XP (?)

     

    Legacy builds remove the ability to use SSE3 extensions,in the case that the processor doesn't support them. it is used to support old CPUs.

    Yes. Only really old computers don't support SSE though. The reason it mentions windows XP is because at one point I disabled GRAVFFT in legacy builds because people were reporting problems. It's re-enabled now so I can probably remove that now (because it's wrong).

    Hi, i Dibill aka FruitGish aka Zombik, here my ideas:
    -Use Dan-Ball physics for balls and boxes
    -Better stamps: folders!
    -Ability to change scene gravity/air temperature/background color
    -Menu!
    -Dynamic raytracing lights! (like a Sandbox (android)
    -Screen resolution! (my monitor - 1920x1080, stretching looks badly)
    -MOAR STKMNS

    Sorry for bad English, im Russian

    I've never played dan-ball, but it's not open-source so I can't see how they do their moving solids. Also I would probably have to reuse a bit of code to make it work.

    Folders in stamps sound cool, stamps aren't very good and are really outdated right now ... I'm also not sure whether I would add folders to stamps or local saves. Stamps are supposed to be a quick thing, local saves already have a full dialog. Eventually i'll probably do what Simon planned to do in tpt++ and merge the online browser with the stamp / local save browsers.

    Changing the background color is a bad idea, it would make many elements invisible because they match the background, and also many things that were supposed to be invisible wouldn't be. To change the air temperature, you can turn on ambient heat and type sim.ambientAirTemp(1000).

    What do you mean by "menu"? There's an options menu, I plan to redo it eventually. Not sure what you mean by Dynamic raytracing lights either. Also I don't really want to add any more stickmen :|, 2 is enough :)

    There is double size mode which should look good, and fullscreen mode in simulation settings. Any other resolutions aren't really possible and would probably look bad.

    Version 28.0 Released!

    Version 28.0 5/3/14
    More simulation rewrites/cleanups. Fix bug where things may stack and form BHOL at the top of the screen. RAZR goes through GEL and kills stickmen. Fix bug where CRAY wouldn't spark INST. Update TPTMP to point to new server and fix a few bugs / errors with it. Simulation updates and bugfixes from tpt++.

    Nothing too interesting, just internal rewrites and bugfixes. It also updates TPTMP, which was moved to a new server today (the old one is still up for now, but won't be for long). I'll only have my computer for two more days, so there might be some trouble getting the next version out (mostly for linux). Eventually I'll have everything set up just like before though.

    Download Version 28.0 - legacy for windows. Use this if your computer is too old for the first one or you use Windows XP
    Download Version 28.0 for 32 bit linux.
    Download Version 28.0 - legacy (no sse) for 32 bit linux.
    Download Version 28.0 for 64 bit linux.
