Spanish artist Eloi Andaluz has posted online a highly creative project: a pinball game that runs in 3DS Max. Pinball Pro uses ThinkingParticles’ Bullet physics implementation and rules-based approach to recreate a quality real time Pinball that is totally modifiable and configurable (with original textures by graphic designer Simon Léveillé). Its aim is also to be a resource for learning ThinkingParticles tricks and techniques. Pinball Pro will soon be available for purchase. Watch a video and find out more on AndVFX.com.
