I haven't even looked at it and I already know it's epic enough to get a thumbs up.

EDIT: Not disappointed.

You made a library out of this, great Builderboy!

Yep :D I finally decided to wrap this up and release the full library ^^ I even included a basic demo program so you can see it in action, and study the code to see how simple this program makes it to set up pinball physics ;D

Wow this is indeed good. Could someone make a Sonic game with this?

Builder had another engine that might be more suited to sonic games. I forgot where it is though.

Oh ok, maybe I could ask him if he misses this thread.

I really hate that such an awesome library had to be evil.  Look at the down number in the link. Oh well.  I guess it's epicness >> it's evilness.

<side-note>
evilness is a word, but epicness isn't? What is the world coming to???

I think what you're thinking of was more of a proof-of-concept that the sonicTI developers at UTI were doing it all wrong, thinking about advanced physics when in reality it was much simpler -- apparently Builderboy's engine wasn't optimized enough or even written in a dynamic way to support a full Sonic game, as he said.  However, if anyone is making a sonic game I sincerely bade you to search for his sonic engine, it was very well done overall.

Here's a link to his Sonic-physics-thing: http://ourl.ca/7764

Yeah, ChainFire is really well done and I hope somebody eventually uses it for something. :)
