Legal notice

This software uses the Bullet physics open source library. Bullet is legally used under the ZLIB license. It is explicitly stated that Bullet can be used commercially in closed-source projects. Bullet licensing information (a COPY) is given in a separate file, which also can be found on Bullet's official repository.

Binaries for all current platforms are built through Qt's QMAKE system WITHOUT any use of Qt-libraries. A .pro for QMAKE file along with brute-force extracted Bullet sources are inside qt folder here. As the layout of Bullet's source tree and the way it is compiled were changed, the whole new codebase is published here to both comply with ZLIB requirements and provide means for further expansion of this set of precompiled binaries to different platforms.

Only Bullet-2 part is compiled, Bullet-3 and CL are excluded, for now. No changes to the original content of any Bullet source file were made. No claims are made that any physics algorithms are changed/invented within this repository.
