Car World is a car driving simulation/demo using simple mechanics. it uses SDL as multi platform windowing toolkit and OpenGL for rendering.

The goal of this simulator is to provide a realistic driving experience. It is focused on roads trafic rules. This software works with the JRE6 and the Java 3D 1.5.1 API. (available on Sun website)

Easy game to understand, but not so easy to play. The game elapses by turns, which is a style of strategy game completely renowned. Player will be able to select one from around 200 countryballs, and launch a road to the conquest of the little balls's world. From buildings, farms, factories, and the Statue of Liberty, to improvements such as coining operations and immigration waves, player must take care of it's countryball, investing correctly their resources and points, like money, food, health, or happiness. But nothing stays the same forever, so player can change the political system; from dictatorship to republic, from monarchy to communism. Once possible, the recruitment should start and launch soldiers or ambassadors to the rival countryballs, depending if you want peace or war. But player must be careful, if something goes wrong, diseases or revolts may take place and that will slow down the countryball's progress. Is all up to you, you decide the destiny of your countryball.

This project is a port to MS Fligh Simulator X of an existing aircraft software model of the famous fighter F-104 G "Starfighter". In the same time is also an upgrading of the software to the Italian F104 "S" aka "SuperStarfighter" version.

3D billiards simulation. QuickHelp: *** Aim: Move mouse *** Shoot: Press and hold left mouse button, move mouse forward/backward *** Play effet (spin ball): Press SHIFT, move mouse (SPACE to reset) *** Zoom in/out: Mousewheel

2D simulation game using exlusively Lagrangian equations of motion. It's a 2D motocross game similar to X-Moto, ActionSupercross and such. Some stability issues persist but mostly it's good already. I shall compile it soon for Windows: one of the problems is that Windows compilers must periodically be reinstalled, and that's annoying. Using Lagrangians in games is not a well documented thing, but it allows to achieve exellent results in very little time, soon after a good parametrization of a given physical system was found. The problem is collisions... they are more problematic to do. The near-end of this little game is to get started with using Lagrangians in games; the far-end is to provide groung for creating a 3D rally game using Lagrange equations of motion, one that fixes certain shortcomings of the CTruck3D _Open . Ah very much thank to the Maxima project !! Without that program the calculations would have been impossible to do!

A truck/car simulator,with realistic physics and oldstyle graphics: it displays pixels through the SDL graphics routines, or the X11 if using that version (has some issues:so use the SDL ver).While the 3D graphics is done by the program itself without external libraries.The environment is a hilly terrain:total freedom to drive around.A remake of the classic "Terep 2". Written in the C programming language: although the code is 30 pages long, it's simple. Trailer can be detouched pressming 'l' (minuscle ELL) so to drive a normal car. There's an OpenGL version too: see the CTruck3D _Open,and an ASCII-Art ver (Term_ CTruck3D). This is also a good dydactical software: code is easy to undersand,and drawing procedures and physics sim procedure are written from 0 so it's clearly understandable how a complete 3D game is done in C, starting from a blank page of any plain text editor.Only basic knowledge of C was used. VID: http://youtu.be/n_O-9EFW5zk Lagrande_Rally_3D is an evolution of this

PEDSIM is a microscopic pedestrian crowd simulation system. The PEDSIM library allows you to use pedestrian dynamics in your own software. Based on pure C++ without additional packages, it runs virtually on every operating system. The PEDSIM Demo Application gives you a quick overview of the capabilities, and is a starting point for your own experiments. PEDSIM is suitable for use in crowd simulations (e.g. indoor evacuation simulation, large scale outdoor simulations), where one is interested in output like pedestrian density or evacuation time. Also, the quality of the individual agent's trajectory is high enough for creating massive pedestrian crowds in movies. Since libpedsim is easy to use and extend, it is a good starting point for science projects.

XOVERHEAD (eXternal Overhead panel) is an add-on for the X-Plane flight simulator. It displays mainly the overhead panel and also some other useful panels. The instruments can be displayed in A320 style. Actually applications support only JARDESIGN A320 X-Plane dataref.

The Kelpie Flight Planner for Flightgear. This Java based Gui flight planner uses the airport and navaid databases of the Flightgear, allowing the user to search for airports and navigation aids and plan flights between them. [Note: Requires Java 1.10 or above] This program is no longer being actively developed or supported. All future work is being undertaken on a port to Rust/Gtk at https://github.com/shartrec/kelpie-flight-planner. But is still in the very early stages.

Tokamak Physics Engine is a high performance real-time physics library designed specially for games. It supports various physics constraints and has built-in collision function.

Sort of remake of the classic STUNTS[1990] driving game, but featuring many authentic elements, OpenGL graphics, and more realistic physics than the origianal, plus particular attention to internal view. It has all the features that CTruck3D has but it is much like GTA 3 ... can get on-off the vehicle, and one can climb on stunt-structures, and there are buildings on which one can jump. As soon as possible I wish to put more structures, and do better climb-on simulation. Of course heightmap is editable, a 300x300 one, and also the color map is editable so one can draw nice roads... also the position of stunt-structures in easily editable. Have lots of fun! Soon more cars and better textured terrain should be available... maybe also in-game terrain editing possiblity. Comments or suggestions are appreciated. compiled for Windows too (XP, 32 bit), it is in the folder "windows_ver_XP"

Corewars is a simulation game where a number of programs try to crash each other. Corewars comes with a graphical user interface (GTK+) to display the running programs and statistics. Redcode is supported as well.

A server emulator for EVE Online to allow private servers and offline play.

full-blown GTA 3 -SA clone. Done in Game Maker. The game implements relistically the possibility to get in various vehicles and go around, jump (also on houses and ramps). This is a sort of reference that shows to also to the geenral public (so not only C/C++ programming nerds) how such a thing is made: vehicles on hilly terrain, obstacles, and collision with them... environment with optimised viewdistance and day/night cycle (so I mean atmosphere).

If you have a gamepad module and you use with switch you probably wanted for this solution. This is the software for create a switched gamepad button to a single event. You can configure which key will be typed whenever switch on and off a switch. Useful for creating home made simulators!
