    HOLY COW!!!! There is soooo much going on "Under the Hood" (Yes, car pun was totally meant) Seriously impressive!!! I haven't seen such an in-depth car rig system since using the craft director studio system back in 2015. Well done good sir, well done.

    It says "Documents/maya/scripts/Ultimate Adjustable CarRig_v2.892 (1)/UltimateAdjustableCarRig.py line 869: list indices must be integers, not NoneType #". when i selected the tires and press the Tire icon in Skin mode, and not rigging tires. how can i fix this?

    Posso usar esse mini comando dentro do Alias,Catia, blender e Unreal Engine?? Tenho vários carros e seria interessante já deixar um carro rigado no alias ou blender e exportar para o unreal engine!!! Você me sugere algum programa para realismo ou esses que citei dão conta. Pelo que observei essa sua estrutura se adapta a qualquer tamanho de chassi e nessa você mandou bem, um gênio. Parabéns brother você é um cara diferenciado da automobilística.

      Thanks for your comment. The UAC-Rig has taken me many, many years to get it to the quality level it is now. All updates are free, I have a new update hitting very soon that adds some pretty slick stuff like animated wipers, windows and 1 - 10 wheeled vehicle rig options. It is extremely user friendly and has a lifetime license for freelancers and hobbyists. This cost may be too high for some, so I added a lite version.
      Keep in mind that there are lots of other options out there if you want to spend time instead of money; Many tutorials exist that will guide you to build a car rig for free. I have a tutorial on my channel that will help you build a simple adjustable car rig, also for free:

      @SimonMills  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Try animating the position of the dynamics control. This motion here: th-cam.com/video/A6IHhxZTeu8/w-d-xo.html was achieved by keying the dynamics control position at the time I wanted it to spring back.

    @DracoNguyen 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Does the rotation of the wheel always rotate forward? cuz i ran into a couple rigs where there the wheels rotate toward 360 and it will loop back to 0 and it creates a really weird motion blur in the renders. Also you think the set up and use for motorcycle, semi trucks/trailers? Or is that a completely separate rig

    • @SimonMills
      @SimonMills  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey Tom, thanks for the catch. A few weeks ago, a user was having some motion blur issues and we could not find the solution. I just modified the rotation like you mentioned and the issue is resolved. I just put out a small update to stop the wheel motion looping, they now always rotate forward.
      Also, the rig is updated quite often with new free features.
      This 2.6 update added the ability to rig trucks with up to 10 wheels: th-cam.com/video/USxo8gbqzig/w-d-xo.html
      Motorcycles will most likely be in the next big free update in a few weeks.

    • @SimonMills
      @SimonMills  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Suspension is setup visually on the included chassis model only but the undulation will carry over to any 4-10 wheel vehicle model. You will need to manually rig any exposed custom springs and link them to the rig... currently. Updates are in progress to add the ability to rig custom springs.

      ​@@original9 Never tried it actually. If Chaos supports fbx animation as the input for car movement then it should work fine... I would imaging something like this: Your car could be animated how you want it in your scene and then lets say a collision occurs... at that point you could switch the cars motion input to the chaos car rag-doll.

    • @SimonMills

      Currently there is a chassis model with fully working suspension, shown in the video, that can be used to fill the gaps in models with no underlying parts... but to rig and connect your own suspension, this is not currently part of the tool directly but it is possible to add your own and have it driven by the UAC Rig. I am working on ways to easily add custom suspension so keep an eye on future updates.
