An additional thank you, a very nice and easy to use script. I really like the offset control to avoid collision troubles too.

Cool stuff Alin, I am curious how your script handles the new faces UVs? Does it attempt to map the faces or project basic UVs?

@avillabon good to know … i`m glad it works
@noxy you`re welcome
@azshall
rigth now it`s not hadling UVs and it have problems with concave geometry.
The script collected dust couple of months because ive lost interest ... but there is hope, i may start working on a project which require shattering stuff. Normally i wouldnt released the script with those 2 features missing (UVs and concave geometry handling) but avillabon seemed to need the utilities i`ve developed for this script … so here is it

The latest build of Fracture now features bombs (aka push modifiers).
Check out a very basic intro video here:

Also, have a look at the growing list of companies using Fracture in their upcoming productions!

I signed up for testing on your site, never got an answer though. I would love to try Fracture out, looks great for a lot of things we do here at the agency I work.
Peace.

Qukck update:
Bomb video has been updated to include a very nice example of the use of data filters and expressions in Fracture to set up staggered explosions.
We are still looking for beta-testers, so if you are interested, read our guidelines and submit your application. We currently have a competition going for approved beta-testers where you can win a free license of Fracture.

few months back I requested Gavin Kistner (max & maya plugin developer for Physx) to know the status about the new Physx Nima solver with maya.
after getting a feedback from he said that they were still in aplha stage & are very determine to roll out new rigid body solver to have it integrated with future maya version soon.
I seriously hope a new rigid body upgradation by autodesk in their next release!
as these days there are lot of third party vendors trying to build/sell their own rigid body solver but what I prefer is having a unified solver which can communicate well with other systems like fluids, particles,cloth etc
hope autodesk fills the gap soon 
Best,
vik
