Sorry for the very long silence, but due to the move to a new country and the lack of time, it is until now that I was able to release some new demos of SimSOM.

It is now an alpha version, and hopefully soon I will be calling out for a few alpha testers, it will be a private alpha release.

Here are a few demos showing some of the old capabilities improved, and many new capabilities, like granular behavior, interactions between different types of materials, switching types of materials, moving geometry, and many other features. And due to a new architecture, the speed and stability were improved a lot as well.

I hope you like it!

This is a follow up on my previous post (SimSOM Pre-Alpha I), so these videos are my second demos iteration. Comparing to the first demos, I introduced many improvements (especially to speed and stability) and new functionalities.

To visit the first post please follow this link SimSOM Pre-Alpha I.

Next are the new second iteration demos, demonstrating some of the functionalities upto this point.
