Settings Provided by the Extension#

exts.”isaacsim.physics.newton”.capture_graph_physics_step#

  • Default Value: true

  • Description: Enable CUDA graph capture for physics stepping to improve GPU performance.

exts.”isaacsim.physics.newton”.auto_switch_on_startup#

  • Default Value: true

  • Description: Automatically switch to the Newton physics engine when the extension starts.

exts.”isaacsim.physics.newton”.load_textures#

  • Default Value: false

  • Description: Load material textures into Newton. Off by default: they feed Newton’s own viewer only – Kit renders the stage through Hydra – and a texture that loads also makes Newton build a second UV-expanded render mesh per textured prim. Measured on a four-conveyor scene, world.reset() was 8.5 s off vs 37.5 s on.
