    This looks really cool. :-)

    I’m going to try this when it’s in the nightly build.

    A first version is available through the update center with a basic testing track for the vehicle, work in progress!

    Best results when car is facing in z direction (towards you)

    Usage:
    - Select a j3o that contains a vehicle model and press the vehicle button (or right-click -> edit vehicle)
    - The VehicleCreator automatically adds a PhysicsVehicleControl to the rootNode of the model if there is none
    - Select the Geometry or Node that contains the chassis in the SceneExplorer and press “create hull shape from selected”
    - Select a Geometry that contains a wheel and press “make selected spatial wheel”, select the “front wheel” checkboxes for front wheels
    - Do so for all wheels

    New wheels will get the current suspension settings, you can edit single wheels via the SceneExplorer (update VehicleControl if wheels dont show up) or apply settings created with the settings generator to wheel groups. Also look at the tooltips when hovering the mouse over an option for more hints.

    Press the “test vehicle” button to drive the vehicle, use WASD to control, Enter to reset.

    Known Issues: Dont save while testing the vehicle, you will save the location and acceleration info in the j3o.

    What’s still missing is a road system.

    This should go inside of Terramonkey.

    It’s a recommendation / request. Troubleshooting sounds that it is intended only for technical questions.
    But if this is the right area, feel free to move it to that area or tell me how to do it.

    Can you open that j3o file in the SceneComposer?

    #
  • Profile picture of beniboy beniboy2p said 1 year, 3 months ago:

    yes.

    it’s a scene containing a car model and 4 wheel models.

  • Profile picture of normen normen1290p said 1 year, 3 months ago:

    Are they linked nodes by any chance?

    #
  • Profile picture of beniboy beniboy2p said 1 year, 3 months ago:

    no, they are all added to the scene, not linked

    #
  • Profile picture of normen normen1290p said 1 year, 3 months ago:

    Does that happen also when you open a new empty scene with the vehicle editor?

    #
  • Profile picture of beniboy beniboy2p said 1 year, 3 months ago:

    yes

  • Profile picture of normen normen1290p said 1 year, 3 months ago:

    No idea, the stacktrace is not particularly helpful :/

  • Profile picture of normen normen1290p said 1 year, 3 months ago:

    Ok, found it, it was an outdated j3o for the raceway
