DynamX Physics Mod
by AymericBdy
DynamX Physics Mod brings realistic vehicle and object physics to Forge 1.12.2, built on the Bullet Physics Engine.
What it does
Players can drive vehicles, cars and props that behave under the Bullet Physics Engine, the same kind of engine found in many video games such as GTA V. Items, blocks and armors can be spawned as ragdolls, so objects react to forces in the world instead of staying fixed.
Vehicles, props and objects are defined through packs, with a large set of properties to tune how each one moves and looks. Detailed OBJ models can be loaded through the DynamX OBJ Model Loader. The mod can be extended with addons, and it requires ACsGuis, which arrives automatically when DynamX is installed. Files are published for Forge 1.12.2 only, and the environment is client and server, so the server and every player need the mod.
The mod does not ship a base vehicle block, so at least one pack is needed to play with vehicles. The BasicPack provides some vehicles, outfits and props to start with. Pack files go in the DynamX folder inside the .minecraft directory, and the mod itself goes into the Forge mods directory.
Key features
