PHYSICS-BASED ASSET PLACEMENT
Twinmotion is giving users access to a completely new tool which lets artists simulate objects colliding with each other based on gravity. This will be particularly useful for artists who want to place their objects in realistic ways, such as the placement of fruit in a bowl. Collision is based on bounding box objects so calculations are carried out quickly and efficiently.
