External Data

We sometimes get our vehicle motion from other simulation programs (specific to vehicle crashes).
We do not get our wheel rotation and steering data from them.

Can we use 4wext and link it to an object or dummy to control the 4wext XYZ Yaw rool pitch, and let the wheels follow the terrain?
I think the answer is yes....

Thanks,
David

For this scenario I would try using 4 extraWheels, and unchecking the "Fixate Wheel" for the front wheels.

We successfully used the Extra Wheel with external data.

Thanks,
