Havok Gratis sur PC...

Dans la rubrique des initiatives qui ne coute rien mais qui peuvent rapporter gros, Havok sera dispo en téléchargement gratuit à partir de Mai pour toute utilisation non commerciale sur PC. C'est une bonne nouvelle, d'autant plus qu'il s'agit quand même de ce qui se fait le mieux dans le domaine.

 

 

Evidemment, avec Intel a la barre, c'est une initiative qui coute peu à Havok. Déjà parce qu'il existe de multiples alternatives sur PC, mais surtout parce que la majorité des revenues d'Havok doivent provenir des développeurs consoles ^_^

 

 

 

 

Havok™, the premier provider of interactive software and services to digital creators in the games and movie industries, today announced that the company will offer the PC version of its award-winning physics and animation software product - Havok Complete - for download free of charge.

 

Available for non-commercial use, Havok Complete for the PC will be freely downloadable in May 2008.

 

Havok's core platform, Havok Complete combines the industry-leading Havok Physics engine and Havok Animation, the company's premier character animation solution. Havok Complete is already the most popular solution in the cross-platform AAA games market, featuring technology used in over 200 games.

 

By making Havok Complete for the PC freely downloadable, Havok will further build on its leading position by completely removing the barriers to entry for the large number of independent developers, academic institutions and enthusiasts in the PC space. 

 

"Havok has an excellent revenue base generated by sales of our three products across multiple platforms and into multiple industries," said David O'Meara, Managing Director at Havok. "This enables us to make an industry-changing move and opens up a much broader market for products such as Havok Behavior - and our new products Havok Cloth and Havok Destruction - that really come alive when adopted on top of our core platform, Havok Complete."
