I'm new to iClone5 and have been running through the current Quick fix tutorials.

I'm stuck on the first tutorial on Physics where you set up a pile of barrels and then make a jeep drive through them.

I've watched the tutorial over and over, followed it to the letter, starting with a new project and a fresh boot up of iClone 5 (i.e. I haven't adjusted any settings prior to following the steps of the tutorial).

What happens every time is, I set up the stack of 3 high barrels, then add the infinite plane to stop them falling through the floor, when I hit play, my barrels crash to the ground (i.e. the infinite plane) roll all over the place and keep vibrating like they've got a live animal jumping up and down inside them until the player runs out of frames. Even the barrels in the tutorial don't act like that after the jeep runs through them?

Same thing happened when I tried using boxes instead of barrels which leads me to think the default settings on my infinite plane aren't the same as in the tutorial.

I looked to see if anyone else had this issue on the forum before posting but couldn't see anything... anyone have any thoughts or can tell me what the physics settings of the barrels and the infinite plane should be?
