Welcome to the Poser Forums! Need help with these versions, advice on upgrading? Etc...you've arrived at the right place!

Thanks for publishing.
However, isn't "Creator of PoserPhysics" a bit euphemistic? I see only an interface to ODE, an actually obsolete open source software released under LGPL or BSD. A very accommodating OSS license (the very free license is probably the reason that ODE hasn't disappeared yet - you can just use ODE and don't have to make a big fuss about not being the inventor).
Besides, unlike the "Bullet" system used in Poser, ODE is not suitable for softbody physics. Which most people assume with the term "Poser Physics".
ODE always had a Python interface. The complete source code is available on Bitbucket: https://bitbucket.org/odedevs/ode/src/master/
By the way, in Poser 12 you can install ODE (as it is almost standard in Python) with "pip install ode-python".
As I said: Thanks for publishing. But the headline claims a little too much for me that just isn't there.

I wrote PoserPhysics in 2005, and it was sold via the old eFrontier Content Paradise for many years. So yes, I created it, and yes it uses ODE which is credited in the download page.
Eugene Khutoryansky has done some excellent physics videos using Poser and the plugin which are worth a look - for example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jarmWzGe78k
