do you think skyrim will use it since we already know it will use Havoc for its physics engine?

As long as when a spoon is bumped into, it flies across the room, making a mess out of everything it comes in contact with!

That particular vid looks a lot less over the top than the screaming troll with poncho.

Oooooh I would like that! Not sure if it will be in though. But hell, if they fix the problem of books flying off shelves at the slightest bump (after spending ages putting them there! :swear: ) I'll be a happy camper.

I honestly want the ability to just click and place items into the world from my inventory as with Morrowind. Keep in the grabbing mechanic of course, but for all of my OCD house decorating needs I'd rather not have to fumble with the damn thing.

lol i posted a thread about that a while ago asking about clothing and hair. it would be awsome but from what ive seen in the GI picks i doubt it but have not lost all hope

I would love this. One of my pet peeves for TES is the crappy physics, especially for the clothes. They're so stiff and unrealistic. The book thing was annoyed too, though I did enjoy causing havoc in stores and bars by mucking everything up.

They should also have a system similar to Amnesia's "Hold R to rotate" feature. I don't know how that would work with console but it would be nice to have.

Edit: Oh and the main thing is that the collision models need to be accurate. No more books floating on top of each other.

Doubtful but still possible if it goes under some serious tweaking and optimization, rendering lots of NPCs with those physics would make the game run with terrible framerates in consoles.

But forget about the clothing physics, look at the animation in that demo, they look so realistic and fluid, I think it's safe to say that Havok used the Behaviour technology in that demo, one can only hopes the same quality in animations is implemented in Skyrim given it is using Havok Behaviour systems.
