At first it seems like just another physics plugin for Softimage, until you look at the feature comparison table:-

"Exocortex Momentum 2.0 is the most versatile multi-physics solver available for Softimage as demonstrated by the table below. But we know that this is often not enough, thus we have designed Momentum to integrate well with both Syflex as well as Lagoa."

Physics Solver Feature Comparison Table

	Momentum	PhysX	Lagoa	Syflex
Rigid Bodies	♦	♦
Soft Bodies	♦		♦	♦
Cloth	♦		♦	♦
Ropes	♦
Soft - Rigid Interaction	♦
RBD Constraints	♦	♦
Softbody Constraints	♦			♦
Plasticity	♦			♦
Deforming RBDs	♦
Build-In plotting	♦
Collision Filtering	♦	♦
RBD Clustering	♦

And all for $149 (individual license). I think that's very good value, especially when you consider that it even supports Softimage 2010 (which is something the original opensource Momentum from studioNest did not). If you're considering upgrading to 2012 mainly for the simulation features you just gained another option!

Well done and thanks to Helge Mathee and Exocortex!
