    Is Physx a factor in games anymore?

    hajalie24 There are - Warframe and PlanetSide 2 - PhysX 3.2 for main physics layer and APEX for extra effects. However, Warframe has mostly Turbulence particles (no CPU execution) and PlanetSide effects are disabled now, so you can't test those on CPU. As for PhysX 3.x based games in...

    Meanwhile, Official Nvidia position on hybrid ATI+NV PhysX configurations Quality care was the cause of ban ;) And according to Mods (like by GenL) and stuff won't live long.

    PhysX games that will benefit from a dedicated GPU

    Well, that's U-Wars, MKZ, Dark Void and.. Star Tales. Support for some titles, like Borderlands, was announced about a year ago, and no news since than. I think some other games are in the works, but PhysX support will be announced close to game release, like it was with Batman Arkham Asylum.

    Meanwhile, working mod that bypass PhysX ban was released yesterday http://physxinfo.com/news/427/modded-geforce-drivers-unlocked-physx-for-radeon/ I'm very cusious, will nvidia fight with them via driver updates ?)

    Would it be possible...

    this will work fine

    Would it be possible...

    Dedicated completely ? currently GPU PhysX can't use more than one GPU for physics calculations.

    PhysX on nVidia cards won't work if an ATI card is used

    Afaik, graphics drivers are responsible for ATI blocking, not PhysX System Software. You can install older GPU drivers, and then newest PhysX drivers separately.

    How PhysX Makes Batman: Arkham Asylum Better

    And ? physics is very buggy, cloth-papers get stuck in batman, their vertexes are jumping all over the screen - say thanks to decreased MaxPhysicsSubsteps value. No magic.

    PhysX games that will benefit from a dedicated GPU

    Experience. Unexpected, but I'm collecting and analyzing PhysX based titles for more then 2.5 years already BTW, Alpha Prime or CoV can't support GPU PhysX a priori because only PhysX SDK 2.7.x and higher allows that, and CoV is, afair, 2.4.4 based and AP 2.5 or 2.4, I don't remember clearly

    PhysX games that will benefit from a dedicated GPU

    I've already contributed all released games with GPU support. Seven. It's a fact. Unreleased - Batman: AA, Star Tales, Nurien, MKZ, U-wars, Metro 2003, Terminator Salvation, Dark Void, Darkest of Days.. maybe Nvidia will reveal some others Alpha Prime, Auto Assault, Fallen Earth, City of...

    PhysX games that will benefit from a dedicated GPU

    For what reason ? That's not a mystery and not so hard to find Released - GRAW2, Crazy Machines 2+, Warmonger, UT3 modpack, Mirror's Edge, Cryostasis, Sacred 2 Other games with PPU support (GRAW1, Cellfactor, Bet on Soldier, etc) can'not be accelerated on GPU Other PhysX SDK based games...

    PPU or GPU 4 physics

    GPU definitely. PPU is old (fast all chips produced sept. 2005) and not near fast as modern GPUs. There is also no guarantee that PPU will support newest GPU optimized features, like APEX, used in latest games I will no wonder if PPU support will be omitted from newest PhysX SDKs

    Confused about game support.

    Yep) Text is copy-past from Ageia PhysX PPU page, and games list - from PhysX Developers page) I dunno why Nvidia haven't updated this page for a couple of months, cos it's confusing)

    Damb Ageia's delaying UT3

    The end of this story. "Now that we know why having a Unix dedicated server is important to online gaming, why won't there be a Unix dedicated server for UT3 anytime soon?

    Damb Ageia's delaying UT3

    Licensing problems - it's nonsense. PhysX SDK has free licence under Windows/Linux.. I can download PhysX SDK for Linux and use it's, and Epic can't ?.. don't make me laugh :D
