Bullet 2.x including pybullet and experimental Bullet 3 OpenCL.
This is the official repository of Bullet 2.x, moved from http://bullet.googlecode.com It includes the optional experimental Bullet 3 GPU pipeline.
The Bullet 2 API will stay default and up-to-date while slowly moving to Bullet 3. The steps towards Bullet 3 are in a nutshell:
- The old Bullet2 demos are being merged into the examples/ExampleBrowser
- A new Bullet 3 API is created
- All Bullet2 functionality is added to Bullet 3.
- The OpenCL examples in the ExampleBrowser can be enabled using --enable_experimental_opencl
You can still use svn or svn externals using the github git repository: use svn co https://github.com/bulletphysics/bullet3/trunk
Requirements for Bullet 2
A C++ compiler for C++ 2003. The library is tested on Windows, Linux, Mac OSX, iOS, Android, but should likely work on any platform with C++ compiler. Some optional demos require OpenGL 2 or OpenGL 3, there are some non-graphical demos and unit tests too.

Requirements for Bullet 3
The entire collision detection and rigid body dynamics is executed on the GPU.
A high-end desktop GPU, such as an AMD Radeon 7970 or NVIDIA GTX 680 or better. We succesfully tested the software under Windows, Linux and Mac OSX. The software currently doesn't work on OpenCL CPU devices. It might run on a laptop GPU but performance will not likely be very good. Note that often an OpenCL drivers fails to compile a kernel. Some unit tests exist to track down the issue, but more work is required to cover all OpenCL kernels.

Build instructions for Bullet using premake. You can also use cmake instead.
Windows
Click on build_visual_studio.bat and open build3/vs2010/0MySolution.sln
Linux and Mac OSX gnu make
In a terminal type:
cd build3
Depending on your system (Linux 32bit, 64bit or Mac OSX) use one of the following lines
./premake4_linux gmake
./premake4_linux64 gmake
./premake4_osx gmake
Then
cd gmake
make
Mac OSX Xcode
Click on build3/xcode4.command or in a terminal window execute
./premake_osx xcode4
Usage
The App_ExampleBrowser executables will be located in the bin folder. You can just run it though a terminal/command prompt, or by clicking it.
[--start_demo_name="Demo Name"] Start with a selected demo
[--enable_pybullet] Build with pybullet Python bindings. See also examples/pybullet
[--enable_openvr] Build with VR support for HTC Vive and Oculus Rift using OpenVR
[--enable_experimental_opencl] Enable some experimental OpenCL examples
[--mp4=moviename.mp4] Create a mp4 movie of the window, requires ffmpeg installed
[--mouse_move_multiplier=0.400000] Set the mouse move sensitivity
[--mouse_wheel_multiplier=0.01] Set the mouse wheel sensitivity
[--background_color_red= 0.9] Set the red component for background color. Same for green and blue
[--fixed_timestep= 0.0] Use either a real-time delta time (0.0) or a fixed step size (0.016666)
You can use mouse picking to grab objects. When holding the ALT or CONTROL key, you have Maya style camera mouse controls. Press F1 to create a series of screenshots. Hit ESCAPE to exit the demo app.
