Re: A Lot of cars

we are using 9.4.1. I was trying to make more of a random sway. It seems like the steering noise just adjusts the amount.

I was trying to add in some of the steering noise and was wondering if there is a way to adjust the frequency of the noise so it looks less jerky.

Re: A Lot of cars

I was also noticing in a couple of my scenes it would have problems when I had a subdivision modifier on my ground object, such as a Turbosmooth or a Subdivide in Max. When I collapsed them into Editable Poly it worked fine. Strange

Re: A Lot of cars

Yes, that is the best way I have found so far. It seems like about 5 cars at a time is the most you want to do at one time. With 100 cars or so though it gets tedious, and I was wondering if there was an easier method or perhaps I was setting it up wrong. Thanks for your help.

A Lot of cars

Hello, I am doing a scene with a large amount of cars in it. The rigs all seem to work properly however when I am ready to record the animation it often locks up. I have tried breaking up the scene into smaller segments with varied results. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. I was wondering if...
