Initially, PrimeXT was using version 2.8.3 of the PhysX physics engine, by now this version was already hopelessly outdated and did not work on any platforms other than Windows. Also, there are no freely available source codes for this version of PhysX, which means that in case of any bugs inside the physics engine, we cannot do anything, just deal with it.
So I decided to integrate PhysX version 4.1.2 (this is latest version that supports 32-bit systems, we need this to keep compatibility with some percent of Android smartphones). Work was started in September 2023 and finished in January 2024. And now we have basic implementation that works on all of required platforms, including Android. Also source code of this PhysX version publically available for all, which is really good in long-term distance.
Also as a bonus I tried to implement water and rigid bodies interaction physics, and this works somehow...

Hi! I'm trying to run this console command in order to play Half life (and its mods) in thirdperson over the shoulder but chase commands don't seem to work on xash. May I know the alternative? I checked the help.txt that was autogenerated by writing makehelp in console but I can't seem to find it's equivalent.
The console commands:
thirdperson
chase_right -12.5
chase_up 2
chase_active 1
chase_back 0
cam_idealdist 32
cam_idealyaw 2.3

i know that im probably not allowed to discuss this but does anyone have hacks for this game? im digging for any hacks for xash3d fwgs but no results
any full screen resolution larger than 800x600 won't display properly on my 1440p144hz monitor. they all either get zoomed in so that i can only see the corner of the screen, or get forced into a window
also, adding "-console" or "-dev" to the target field for the game's shortcut still doesn't bring up the console when i press the tilde key

Is there a way I can have both materials as an option and raw input? I want to use the Half-Life ReSrced mod except for opposing force, the camera is bugging out like crazy and since there is no option for raw input, I can't really do anything. Also if I download the latest test version like you said, I won't be able to use the mod since it requires materials to be checked.
Materials was removed from original Xash3D in 2017 and people didn't said anything to Unkle Mike.
So IDK what do you want.
Materials code was moved to XashXT and Paranoia 2: The Savior.
It's not hard to return this feature, but there no requests to original Xash3D author.
