So what is the future of AwayPhysics due to the change of Adobe’s policy regarding the distribution of Alchemy API ?

Fun thing is all the people running to unity will find that also dies with 11.2 smile

So its a case of
Wait for adobe to release A2
wait for devs to port bullet to A2

It wont.
Unless for non commercial.
And as rob says in the other thread, what does that mean for Away.

What bugs me is that Adobe isn’t just coming out with an explanation or a schedule.  They’re being completely opaque about the situation.  I’d love to be pitching Away physics based games, but how can I talk to a client about creating one if we can’t even tell them if it will work once 11.2 comes out?

At the very least, we need to know when Alchemy 2 is coming out.  I’m 100% sure that if it’s a cost issue, the Away community would chip in to buy a license.

It’s the not knowing that’s killing us.

100% agree with you Alex.

One thing that let me choose Away3D in favour of Alternativa is the reason that Away3D had the physics engine (and Alternativa didnt back then)
To see now that I can’t pitch my awayphysics project because of Adobe not communicating at all, really bothers me.

I think a little bit more info from Adobe or anyone is very welcome, because I can’t pitch any project with awayphysics now.
