yeah except there's dozens of cars falling through the map/clipping through buildings in this video the physics were much more 'robust' for its time and is arguably better looking than like.. gta5, but it does have its flaws 19:20 there's a floating car in the middle of the road 21:02 if you look at the cars down the road, they just fly straight through the wall, there's a boat flying through the map and into space, as well they likely limited the physics collision checks to a certain radius around the player to reduce performance impact, so anything outside the radius just flies straight through the map. genius in normal scenarios, though it really shows when cars are set to fly at mach 10 speeds.
funnily enough, the reason why that car is floating there is because it was out of physics distance because the cars fly so far, so quickly, they reach the border of the "stop having physics" radius and just freeze midair, never to update again even if inside the radius again
6:00 the dozens of tire marks on the ground indicating all the people flying through the park or into the gate are SLAMMING down on the brakes for dear life
GTA V still uses the Euphoria middle ware, but it's definitely toned down quite a bit. If you've never played Star Wars The Force Unleashed , give it a try. It uses Euphoria and it's awesome. It also uses this tech called Digital Molecular Matter , which makes objects in the game break and deform realistically. DMM and Euphoria should have been the future for video games. I've just recently discovered that Natural Motion (the company that created Euphoria) Is no longer going to be licensing Euphoria out to developers. From what I gather, they're doing that so they can solely focus on making mobile games. I'm not sure what that means for R* in the future, but it's pretty disappointing.
