Hi - have you checked all the tutorials I've posted on youtube?  (links from my blog below)

options as far as direction of impact, velocity etc

SR1 has a force prop, so you can apply a predefined amount of force to any scene element at a certain frame, in whatever direction you want.  Email me (email address at the physicalc software website) for SR1, or wait a couple of weeks and it will be included in the installer you download from the Content Paradise.

Is there any more you can do with it

Again, check out all the videos - links from my blog below.
