Fisio: Physics Simulator

Fisio is a fast and easy-to-use physics simulator for Daz Studio based on the Project Chrono library.

Fisio simulates the motion of solid objects, referred to as bodies. The main features of Fisio are:

• Any close-geometry prop or figure (including instances) can participate in the simulation as a body.
• There is no limit to the number of bodies in simulation, other than the computer’s memory.;
• The bodies can be subjected to animatable gravity, damping, point, directional, torque, oscillatory, or wind-type forces.
• Some bodies can be manually animated, and nonetheless, participate in the simulation, by colliding or linking to other bodies.
• The motion of the bodies can be constrained by using links between them.
• Like in the natural world, a body can be defined by its material and its shape.
• A material is defined, like natural materials, by its physical properties such as density, bounciness, etc., and it can be shared by many bodies.
• The shape is the specific geometry of the body. The user can select a simplified shape or the actual mesh of the body, or let the plugin determine one.
• Fisio is extensible with future add-ons.

This is the core Fisio plugin, and it is dedicated only to rigid body physics simulation. An add-on will deal with soft bodies (flexible or deformable bodies).
