PhysX also is lacking in some regards. For example it also doesn�t support cylinders! Maybe because PhysX (previously Novodex) is based on the unfixable ODE? :p But now that it is owned by Nvidia maybe it will become better? I find it really surprising that engines like Bullet and Newton aren�t very different (in some regards they even are better) to engines of the big players like Ageia or Havok. What are those teams of PhD programmers doing all day if single programmers like Erwin Coumans or Julio Jerez can compete with them?
