Quote The company said it aims to propel innovative game development by making the technology, which includes Havok Physics and Havok Animation, freely available to the large number of independent developers, academic institutions and enthusiasts in the PC space. Under the terms of the deal, which has been arranged with Havok owner Intel, approved game developers on the PC platform will be able to execute a commercial distribution license with Havok for free.

Quote Havok’s physics software has aided the development of over 200 titles, including Halo 3, Assassin’s Creed, BioShock and Heavenly Sword, as well as upcoming games such as Alan Wake, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed and StarCraft II. Eh, no. I don't think they are worried. IT's more about the Fact that they have new technologies coming out, that work on top/with the basic engine. Its all about physical penetration. :grin: Title: Re: Havok Going Free for PC Devs Post by: Margalis on February 27, 2008, 02:01:15 AM Sounds like it will be free for people who couldn't otherwise afford it, which is pretty common in specialized software.
