Hi,

This is a Ho To Question for Physics ToolBox . Would any one know if it is possible to : Use Arrow Keys for Forward / Backward / Left / Right and Space Bar to start / stop INSTEAD OF having to locate the Fwd / Bkw slider and Left Right buttons. Has anyone done it ever. Is it possible with LUA ?

Agree totally.  we have had awful problems with the physics props.

Thanks for the suspension lesson, guys. I wasn't aware a jeep suspension could be so complex. But I still don't believe a jeep suspension should move as much as Pixtim's luxury vehicle sample. I like more roughness and sturdiness in a jeep.


I played with the 4WD included in iClone, the one with a suspension. But I'm not sure if I like it as much. Too much wheel movement make it seem less realistic, IMO. Of course, I can adjust it with the iClone 5 settings.

Even though it is a Military Vehicle, suspension is what makes it realistic as you can see in the video, plenty of suspension.

: D !!!!! Gary, you are someone wonderful! I agree with you, my English is pitiful. I regret very much to miss all the qualities of the conversations. I hope I can soon take the time to learn to speak correctly (I take this opportunity to apologize to all those whose eyes cry when they read my message ...).

I also bought Iclone in version 6. And I also find it unthinkable to have to install a version 5 today .... wait and see, we've had some nice surprises in recent months!

@Pxtum & @Grabiller considering you are both French I am sure you would communicate better in your native tongue:D
@Grabller (in my opinion) Is fantastic at conversing  in English:cool:
@Pixtum I consider you a friend but English is not a second language for you:satisfied:

Back on topic I bought into iCLONE at the end of 6 and then 7 through promotion (Physics Toolbox was one of the items I purchased to qualify) so 5 is not an option for me:angry: also there was no warning about incompatibility  in iCLONE 7 or I would have looked elsewhere to fulfill the promotion!

I just want it to work the way it was presented to me;)

PS :
I just found the 4W4 with suspension that I had seemed to have seen.
It was not a video, it's just in the bonus projects of the Physic Toolbox! :) _ ( window template-> project )
I remember that I had tested it quickly, but since I did not have access to settings .. I stopped.

So it is possible, here is a capture pre-made settings.
The result is not bad but without accessible settings .. hard to see if we can push further.
The hierarchy of elements seems to be difficult to implement anyway. And it seems to me that the wheels do not always respect their point of attachment (I'm not talking about the crossbar but the point of physical approach that is invisible).
But in any case, it will suffice in many cases even if the suspension is very hard !  :D

I'm sorry if I seemed aggressive, I do not speak English very well.
I also explained my impression because despite watching many vehicle videos made with Iclone, I have not seen that I find really credible. But I will be sincerely happy to be wrong. I work more and more with Iclone, and the more I can do on one software, the better!
I also said that it was not necessarily the physics engine that was a problem but could be the implementation in Iclone or the complexity of use to get a good result. This is actually the information I would like to have before I start spending time learning a new system.

"The reaction is not bad, there is no suspension, so the system is reacting, that's all."

.

But why not put a suspension if it works? Admit it's strange ...

There are still peoples who have the impression the earth is flat.

hmmm ... is this humor or irony ... unfortunately my ability with English does not allow me to know it :(

I can not agree with you. That the seats are less comfortable, ok ...
But the suspension has a direct impact on the vehicle's capabilities. An all-terrain vehicle has a suspension travel much greater than a vehicle for bitumen.
The wheels must absolutely stay in contact with the ground because if this is not the case, it causes a sharp decline in the motor and control of the vehicle ...
An all terrain vehicle of the army is certainly not for comfort .. but it is made for performance ... its wheels must be glued to the ground

I will go into iclone 5 settings and see if I can put a little more suspension to my military vehicle.

Hi Argus,
that does not pay. In Iclone 5 you also have no more Einstellasmöglichkeiten what the suspension is concerned.
The new vehicle that you use is based on the same physics box foundation (4 wheels) that I also used for my 4 year old vehicle in the clip above. It is supposed to simulate a Jeep.
I have created the clip shown in IC 7 and it is enough for me that the Physikoolbox in IC 7 works without me having to change to IC 5.The vehicle behaves no different than in IC 5

@pixtim

You're comparing a luxury vehicle (your example) with a military vehicle (my example). Military vehicles are not known to have the quality suspension of luxury vehicles, far from it. I will go into iclone 5 settings and see if I can put a little more suspension to my military vehicle. I'm not sure if the wheels have to be in permanent contact with the ground at all.
