Default Crazy Machines 2 and PhysX ?
Can anyone confirm that this Rube Goldberg game supports PhysX as more than a gimmick? Anyone have it?

It's a rebirth of The Incredible Machine.


If I had money I would own it in a heartbeat.

It's on Steam and there a demo out but I'm having trouble finding the English version or I'd link you.

Game is fun, but it does not work with latest nvidia drivers (the one with hardware PhysX)... Thats on my system at least.

THAT's what I needed to know. Thanks.

It lists compatibility with Ageia cards, but no mention of NV-PhysX.

Hmmmm, really?

I got it for my nephew, the game is really cool. The physics, although not 100% perfect, are indeed excellent. He's using a 4850 and it works flawlessly. Ironic?

The game is fun and genuinely educational, a rare thing these days.

It does work with pre-physX drivers.
