Re: Updated Algoodo version

Hi Shadow, Make sure to uninstall Algodoo completely before installing the new version. Updates: NEW: onLaserHit and onHitByLaser now has a hsv argument NEW: Restore markup tags that are now working again (small, sub and sup) FIX: Widgets flashing on hover on some Intel graphics cards (#67) FIX: Tim...

Re: Updated Algoodo version

Hi Shadow,

Tried installing the new version of Algodoo on my old Windows 10 PC, and it runs perfectly. Maybe you have a graphics card issue? You could try checking here: https://www.algodoo.com/update-drivers/

Updated Algoodo version

Good news for those of you who use, or are considering using, the 2D simulation program Algoodo from Algoryx. After many years of inactivity, the program is now being updated again and is available in a 64-bit version for both PC and Mac!

Re: Grease power

I’m really sorry to hear about what you’re going through. It sounds like you've been through a lot, and it's understandable that you might feel overwhelmed and uncertain about the next steps. It’s important to be kind to yourself, especially as you recover from such significant challenges. Regarding...

Re: MT51 Comments Enquiry ?

My Analysis of the Last Sentence in MT51 The phrase “a motion is effected but in a faulty manner” suggests that Bessler's mechanism achieves some form of motion, but it doesn't function perfectly or as intended. Here’s a detailed breakdown of what this might mean: Partial Success: The mechanism is ...

Re: MT51 Comments Enquiry ?

Thanks to John Collins for his detailed response. Here’s a summary and a way forward based on John’s reply: Translation Adjustments : John Collins mentioned that after more than 17 years, he can’t recall the exact reasons for the specific changes in the translation of MT51. He noted that while he tr...

Re: Besslers prime mover and its enabler.

You have some frames, two weights fall onto these, one weight larger than the other. 16 weights in total. See "Toys Page"; Bessler explains it all here. Oh, and the angle of that side is also important; the angle is only for connoisseurs, but if you know, you certainly know what I'm talkin...

Re: Besslers prime mover and its enabler.

It's so simple. It's all about collision of weights into frames. I have figured it out, all my SIMS are working, from Algoodo to WM2D. As I strive towards achieving my work goal of creating a functional model in real life, every time new things happen so I get delayed. It's as if something wants to ...

Re: Besslers prime mover and its enabler.

Hi Shadow and Roxaway, Algodoo is originally developed by Emil Ernerfeldt, a Swedish software developer. The program was launched under the name "Phun" in 2008 but was later rebranded as Algodoo. The latest version I'm aware of is version 2.1.0, released back in 2013. While the program sti...

Re: We are being pushed up, not held down, by gravity!

Thank you very much agor95, and a very happy new year to you too! I have spent Christmas revisiting some of my old simulations. Those of you who have tried to create simulated PM wheels have probably encountered the same problem as I have, namely that these simulations often produce incorrect result...

Re: We are being pushed up, not held down, by gravity!

Thank you for your comments. I don't have a specific opinion on the subject myself, but I have just observed a trend on YouTube among scientists discussing the possibility of redefining the law of gravity. In the meantime, I believe we can all agree that the old saying 'what goes up, must come down'...

Re: We are being pushed up, not held down, by gravity!

Yeah this gravity thing, it's a complicated matter. Maybe Bessler discovered something about it, that helped him build his wheel.

We are being pushed up, not held down, by gravity!

Hello fellow PM chasers! Here is something interesting about gravity. Gravity is not a force, and since there's no force pushing down on you, that means you are currently accelerating upwards. If you are hold an accelerometer steadily in your hand, it will tell you, your accelerating upwards. This i...

Re: Perpetual Motion is Impossible

As long as AI only operates within the framework of our humanly adopted laws of nature, we will continue to receive the following answer (this from ChatGPT): Making a perpetual motion device is impossible according to the laws of thermodynamics. The first law of thermodynamics, also known as the law...
