Thanks Calastigro.

I do not want to appear sadistic about this test. My full respect is given to all those who lost loved ones in this terrible tradegy, we unite in sorrow.

General Discussion / WTC Disaster

Hi,

On purchasing on this fabulous software I set out trying to see if Pontiflex's physics engine can replicate the tragedy.

I began by creating a new level and making four anchor points. I extended the budget to � and set about building up and up creating the same (sort of) structure that the WTC 1 building consisted off.

It had two main lift shafts with a criss cross infrastructure.

Once I had built a replicate I removed the parts that the plane would have destroyed.

Anticipating pressing the test button and letting the physics engine do its work I wondered if my machine:

P4 1.8GHz
1GB RAM
60GB Hdd
nVidia Ti200 64MB DDR

would handle the instructions. To my dismay Pontifex removed all of the links and only displayed 3-4 structures falling from the sky.

My question is:

Can Pontifex handle this huge task even although it was not designed for it?

Why did it display only afew structures when the original plan contained hundreds?

I would insert a screenshot if I could, but I cant for some unknown reason.
