Just a quick note:
Flade is AS2 and is no longer in development.
APE is AS3 by the creator of Flade (Alex Cove).
Fisix is AS3 by another group.

I think fisix engine is an AS3 continuation of APE. I've used the flade
library (which I think in turn is the precursor of APE) for some rigid
body simulations before and it's pretty good (especially if you need to
support <9 version players), documentation is non existent though, you
need to look at the example code to infer usage.

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Pile of Objects Physics
Hey Joe,
I'm currently working on a flash physics based project as well. From my
research I have found two
AS3 based physics engines, which one was already mentioned by you
(APE). The other
is the Fisix Engine. From my tests it is better structured and more
complete.
Check out:
http://www.fisixengine.com/engine.asp
It is free to use on non-commercial projects but the license for
commercial projects is a bit steep.
Because of that I may end up using APE cause of its LGPL and release
what ever I add to it. Haven't decided yet.
Hope this helps,
Rob.

Hello,
I'm looking at simulating the physics of a pile of irregular objects
in Flash. The idea is that you drop irregular object on the pile and
it decides where to stop, if you remove an object then it decides
whether the ones above it fall etc.
Has anyone seen any good tutorials, books or code to do this.
I'm aware of the APE project (http://www.cove.org/ape/) but it looks a
bit over specced and not very finished.
Some one of this list also mentioned the O reilly game physics book
(http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/physicsgame/) but hadn't trried it
out.
I'd be grateful for any pointers to get me started on this.
Cheers
Joe
