So langsam wird es wieder ernst, denn wie die Jungs hinter dem Meqon Projekt gestern bekannt gegeben haben, wurde von 3DRealms die Physik-Engine Meqon - ein absoluter Markt-Newcomer und wohl einziger echter Konkurrent für Havok - für den lang erwarteten Action-Shooter Duke Nukem Forever lizensiert. So ist auf der Webseite der Spezialisten zu lesen:

"Meqon is glad to announce that 3DRealms have decided to buy our Meqon Game Dynamics SDK for their upcoming title Duke Nukem Forever.

Meqon’s product strategy has always been to create the most easy to use and flexible physics engine on the market, but without compromising the computational speed. George Broussard, CEO of 3DRealms comments – “We evaluated several physics SDK's and Meqon was really fast, had the cleanest interface and integrated into our game very quickly.”

The Meqon Game Dynamics SDK does not only handle basic rigid body simulation but also contain highly advanced character and vehicle modules. Mr Broussard comments – “With its advanced feature set, we feel confident that Meqon's next generation physics engine can help us create the next generation of action games.”
