I'm wondering if there are any good tutorails on Newton Physics, because i have no clue how to use it and I'm not buying dark physics. So if anyone can point me in a direction please do.

I'm a noob help will be accepted

Newton comes with some help files that list the commands, and it also comes with some examples as well.

I found Newton to be very glitchy on my version of DBP, however. Even the demos were pretty badly glitched. For example, the first person shooter one has flickering text and forces the player to fly around in circles like it's based on some timer/sine/cosine function.

But back on point, if all else fails, depending on the type of game you're doing, programming your own physics is pretty easy as long as they're not attempting to imitate the real world exactly.

This might help some. CuCuMBeR does an excellent job explaining Newton. But unfortunately I also found Newton to be glitchy at times. Hope it works great for you though.
