Hi, friends,

I am looking for a kind of 3D SDL (like Povray) with a kind of inbuild 
physics engine. I know, Povray can realize some of this, that particle 
systems exist for povray etc., but I'd like something with inbuild physics.

Any suggestions would be appreciated ;-)

Does Blender with Python additions count?

I'll note that my attempts to make Python work right with the physics engine 
of Blender revealed a number of bugs I was uninterested in programming 
around, but maybe it'll do for your uses.

Well, I'll take a look at blender, again. Last time I tried blender, I could 
not get it to work properly under Windows XP. Has been two or three years 
ago, though.

It *worked* for me. Lots of what *I* wanted to do was rubbish in Blender, 
but it didn't crash. It just didn't work as documented.
