Prem

   I wish to be team leader, 

I would like to make a short short on underground exotic import racing, in my area, something witch witch many of my friends are in involved in.
there will be high speed live road race with at least one BIG crash.
some cars that may feature… if you could model or texture it would help.

That is some fabulous work you’ve done in such short time. :thumbsup:

It’d take me a week to put something like that together. :cry:


#10

Looks nice, but… the cars are going to crash, yes…?


#11

oh ya there going to crash…
big complosion big mess LOL

doing some crash tests today if i get the chance,

going to watch plenty of videos of cars crashing, try to make it as chaotic as possible.
Ill post the tests soon as i get some nice results.


#12

ok I did not get a chance to work on this the last 2 days :frowning: :frowning: but i have a hour or two spare in the morning s I should get some more updates then :slight_smile:
going to do a bit of work on crash dynamics!
its crunch time!


#13

a simple crash test ill finish it tomorrow, Now bed. :wink:
zzzzz

I used an Old car model, and shape dinamics to make the crash this is just a tiny bit of what i hope to finally make.
I want a really crazy crash.

please keep in mind that this is a early test…
Later.


#14

Yea that’s very cool.

I don’t know how you did it, but a guy once told me to create morph targets using a cloth sim. Then morph the car into the crash shaped, and use a rigid body sim to crash the car.

Get what I mean?


#15

Yay ek9! I have one too, but mine is the type R version and it will only be a background car in my animation.


#16
yep thats more or less it. takes a bit to get the head around it but it works a treat
:) But there are a million ways to create the same effects, I nearly always find some way to make things work If I dont I try thinking of something better to do instead.
i like playing aroud with havok's reactors but im more of a art head than a tec head but I do ok.

              Heiyuu

I like to love your Type R thank you, could have it as oncomming trafic or parked up at the traffic lights in a sequence i have planned.

maybe let big jackknifing 18wheeler plow into it :slight_smile:
there’s physics for ya lads!

~_+

If anyone else has nice Car models essp Street cars or japanese performance I would really appreciate it, of course all credit will be giving to you. as I dont think I have the Time to model all the cars by the DL. thanks for the kind words so far guys.

Lman, nice stuff dude. I like the crash … cloth sym heigh? Cool. Just learned something.


#19

I have some car models, but they are not very high polygon count.


#20

thank you ,
thats ok they will be moving so fast you wont notice low plot models,
I would really aprecate if i could use them for this challange, im going to make a car my self but there is so much for me to do i dont know how i will gwt all the 3d done on my own.
my email is snapperscan@yahoo.ie
