  • Physics is appropriate sometimes, falling and collapsing
  • You lose control as you give it to the physics engine
  • It can work well with many simple objects
  • Can help the process with previewing an idea to tweak later

Fun little lecture and nice intro to the physics engine, but it left me wondering how this can be applied to an armature.

A physics lesson / challenge related to our cube dude would be nice.

I’ve found that animations made with Blender physics, while really fun to play with, often doesn’t export to other apps/contexts. I understand there’s a way to bake animations, though, and I suspect (but do not know for a fact) that this might allow conversions of Blender physics simulations to keyframed animation. I can imagine some settings in which that might be useful. I wonder if this will be addressed in the course at some point? Anyway, here’s something I did with the physics engine while I was taking one of the other GameDev Blender courses:
