wheel spinning problem

Post by wombat » Tue Mar 30, 2010 12:58 pm

Hi,

I have a problem with the 4Wheeler Ext and the autonomous mode (I'm working with Cinema 4D 11.5). The wheels seem only spinning correctly when I keyframe the targetmesh veeery slowly. As soon as I'm moving the target a little bit quicker, the wheels start to spin way to fast and after a few seconds they seem to stop spinning and only moving along the spline. Maybe it's a skaling issue ? Can I configure the wheels to spin much slower ?

cheers

Hi Wombat,

Could it be aliasing effects? How fast are the wheels spinning? Try increasing the animation framerate during recording to see if it helps.

Hi Micael,

when I select the pan or rotate gismo of the wheel I can see the gismo spinning during the animation and the render is also ok - so the illusion of the non-spinning wheel is only concerning the wheel polygons inside the viewport. That's no problem for me.

Thanks and best regards
