Well, some good news on this front: Nvidia is open-sourcing the code
for PhysX 32-bit. So even if Nvidia no longer is supporting 32-bit
code on its newest GPUs, it is possible that either an updated 64-bit
version will be created by enterprising hackers, or some sort of shim
will be made that will allow older software to run on the newer
hardware. I suspect, given the raw horsepower on modern GPUs, any
slowdown from this thunking will be minimal.
Code available here, if you're the sort who thinks they can do
something with it. (Me, I'm gonna wait on the hacks ;-)
https://github.com/NVIDIA-Omniverse/PhysX/releases/tag/107.0-physx-5.6.0I guess sometimes, despite themselves, Nvidia can do something right.
Now if only they can prevent their GPU power-connectors from melting
;-)
