A real time application for playing around with 3D fluids and rigid bodies.

• Fluid and rigid body simulation based on NVIDIA PhysX (R)
• Screen Space Fluid Rendering with clear and colored particle fluids
• Fully customizable scenarios stored in XML
• Changing allmost all simulation properties in real time
• Uses a custom OpenGL rendering engine
• Uses Final Platform Layer (libfpl.org) for creating a window and an opengl rendering context
