Unlike current generation physics systems, which utilize only discrete physics, Havok's Continuous Physics offers an extra level of integrity to your game, and removes restrictions and fix-ups that sap production time that restricts the design of your game.

Havok Physics also incorporates robust memory optimizations crucial for simulating physics in complex game environments on next-generation platforms.

Havok Physics provides comprehensive SDK support for the following areas:

  • Collision Detection - including Continuous Physics™
  • MOPP™ Technology - for compact representation of large collision meshes
  • Dynamics and Constraint Solving
  • Vehicle Dynamics
  • Data Serialization and Art Tool Support
  • Visual Debugger for in-game diagnostic feedback
