When is bullet 2.70(new character controller) due to drop?

[Mr.Newb]

When is Bullet 2.70 set to come out? [Looking forward to new character controller]

[Wavesonics]

Ya I'm curious as well, I'm looking forward to the bug with the destroyed callback being fixed.

[Erwin Coumans]

We try to wrap up Bullet 2.70 within two weeks.

Please check out and download the Bullet 2.70 alpha version, it includes the work-in-progress Kinematic character controller in the Demos/CharacterDemo.

Note that not all features and patches have been included yet.
Feedback is welcome,
Erwin

Why do the KinematicCharacterController functions take a btDynamicsWorld instead of a btCollisionWorld?

Isn't the whole point of doing the Kinematic version is to use just collision and not dynamics?

Good suggestion. It is a remainder of the dynamic character controller.

It has been fixed in SVN, so it will go into the next beta/final 2.70 release,
Thanks for the feedback,

Excellent news.

I will be grabbing the SVN later this week and trying out the Kinematic controller stuff. I'll offer whatever feedback I can after that.
I hope to use this feature in my current project.
