Forum - Craft Animations - 3d animation tools

Hey everyone!

I've been perusing the forums, and I just wanted to clarify if there is no built-in "jumping" system for 4Wheeler Ext.

If so, is this a feature that will be coming back any time soon? What other methods exist to get the same kind of effect?

I'm working on a short film that involves a lot of high-speed driving, and more than a couple of jumps.

These tools are simply fantastic, and I can't wait to really put them into production.

Thanks to anyone who takes the time to respond!

Jumping mode has been removed from Craft 4-Wheeler Extended since it proved troublesome to the overall stability of the tool. And it didn’t produce realistically looking landings.
If you want jumping mode back, you will have to install an older version of the tool.

We're working on a full-physics 4-wheeler project that will be able to jump, crash, roll, break apart, etc. But it will not be finished until the end of the year at earliest and more likely in 2010.

Thanks for getting back with me so soon.

I can't wait to see what the full-physics version is capable of.

keep us posted!

-Thanks again!

Looks great! love the differential. Will there also be an equivalent for 2Wheeler?

Right now we don't have any plans for a 2-Wheeler version but if the 4-Wheeler one is successful I'm sure there will be more versions coming.
