What is the System Software?

The PhysX SystemSoftware is required by any PhysX powered application. It’s a collection of PhysX windows libraries allowing PhysX to be run on your computer.

When developing with PhysX; Your programmers will need the system software, if your artists use any PhysX tools they will need it too, and most certainly your intended audience.

If you are using Linux then there is no equivalent of the PhysX system software for it and you may skip this step.
