    Great animation. Now, you have to tell us how you did it. Are those balls following a path, is this a key frame type animation?

    Hello Luke, every other ball has 6DOF. Between balls, billiard cue and table is defined 3D contact (new feature in ProE WF5). Velocity of balls is defined by the energy of biliard cue.

    Animations was made separately and then merged to one video.
