The goods: Source (Should build on OSX, Linux and Windows) OSX Demo binary (built from the source code above) I've been sitting on a large number of Chipmunk changes without an official release for almost a year and a half now. Time to stop being lazy! New features in no particular order: - New joints/constraints system. Much more flexible and programable than before. Joints have adjustable parameters now so you can use them like servos and the like.
- Raycasting. Actually just line segment queries, but should be about as useful and is implemented very efficiently.
- New collision callback API. You now can register callbacks for collision begin/separate events among other useful things.
- Sensor shapes. Collision shapes that call callbacks but don't generate collisions, like sensors in Box2D or triggers in Unity.
- API for safely removing objects from the space from callbacks.
The documentation on the Google Code wiki is also finally up to date. |

It looks like you accidentally left a file out of the zip. CMake is complaining about "cpBreakableJoint.c" not being present. Even if I hack the CMakeLists.txt to ignore it, one of the demos doesn't link without it.

Ah, whoops. Looks like I forgot to do an update on my working copy in OSX before running svn export. Didn't have the changes to the CMake files. I fixed it.

Awesome, this is something I'd been wishing for a bit for awhile (i.e. make a shape for the screen, and call a drawThis() callback on anything that collides with it) - API for safely removing objects from the space from callbacks.
This also :O |

awesome, man.
i've been using chipmunk for a while now for one of my projects (not completed yet - ask me in 6 months ahaha) - it's great. i actually only use a small amount of the available functionality (i'm not using joints/etc...) - so at some point i'll take a look at some of that i'd imagine.

Yup. http://code.google.com/p/chipmunk-physics/wiki/BindingsAndPortsI know there are more as well. If you don't like any of the OO languages there, it would only take a couple of hours to write a nice fully OO wrapper for your favorite OO language of choice. I've written several.  |

Great job, slembcke does the Ruby interface contain the new features as well? Not yet. At the moment we are working on some updates to our iPhone games. Though we will probably update Crayon Ball (written in Ruby) soon too. It wouldn't take long to do if you really wanted to use it for the Assemblee contest or something, just let me know. |

Any ideas for this? I used to just have a markdown file with everything in it. The Google code wiki is sort of nice, but I can't generate the documentation offline or download the entire wiki. Anyone know of any good markup tools for generating html/pdf output? |

The wiki's already being rendered as a webpage, surely You just need to download it and redirect a few links. So, wget -r?
And congratulations on your release.
