Can you get the objects to float in space using your mouse? This is the conclusion to the three part series on using the Box2D Physics engine with ActionScript. Box2D Anti-Gravity Example: Box2D Anti-Gravity Example (click and hold the mouse down for anti-gravity) Now that we have a Box2D environment set up and lots of [...]

Now that we have created our small world using the Box2D physic engine let's start creating shapes! The shape factory will allow you to define any shapes you would like to add to your world. In this example we will create polygons. Polygons in this example will be defined as a shape with 3 or [...]

The Box2d Physics Engine for ActionScript from the Ground Up We'll start with the basic 2d environment (part 1) and work our way into creating dynamic polygons (part 2) with an anti-gravity effect (part 3). Here's a preview of what we will end up with: Google Maps Text Event (click and hold the mouse down [...]
