PhysX Download

Hi everyone. I am lisenced to use the Nvidia PhysX SDK but I can not find the version 2.8.4 or similar anywhere on the website. After looking for 2 hours, I've come up short not being able to find it since they changed the website. If anyone else using it that know where it is on the website could help that would be great. Thanks

Was having the same problem. Took me forever to find, but once you're logged in, you should be able to get to this page, and there is a link for "Older Releases" there.



developer.nvidia.com/rdp/apexphysx


Darn, looks like that may only have the older APEX tools :( I'll keep poking around, let us know if you find it sooner, thx!

Yep it's a pain in the butt to locate that version of PhysX. Here is the link to what you need from my dropbox account.

@Rob- Yea thats only the APEX tools, I got my hopes up on that one too.

@Ron- I think you have to include your username haha, that takes me to my home and sys folder doesn't exist.

Thank you both for the help!

p.s. my dropbox account is Krystian Lahage or my email is Klahage@gmail.com if you have to send link via email. I believe you have to right click on a file and select share, then it asks for an email or name.

I had the same issue that their support had to fix the account cause it wouldn't register correctly to let me access the older stuff.

Unfortunately the file from Mega fails to install...

What a nightmare trying to get the SDK from NV. Not sure what they think they gain by making it that complicated to download old versions of the SDK. Anyone involved with setting up that system should be fired. Out of a cannon. Into a volcano.

*EDIT: So apparently you have to run this from an elevated command prompt on Win 8. msiexec /i NameGoesHere.msi

I still never managed to find the download from NV. Registered for the PhysX/APEX and Gameworks programs, couldn't find the download anywhere. Absolutely stupid.

Does anyone know where you go to download it officially? Just curious at this point.
