Car animations testing

[Oscar]

Hi all! It's been a longer while since i started a new thread here but I had some free time and i lunched 3ds just to check if i still remember what's it about. Right now i'm finishing my school final project which is Utility Helicopter's Fuselage Project ...I'm not gonna share the boring calculations but i will definetly show the model when it's done. Anyways i wasn't writeing much but i was checking some forums from time to time and i found this great plugin for max on Evermotion written by Karba. Search through the Evermotion.org for more details about the plugin. I tested the plugin with two of my old models sofar and it's not to bad for about hour of fighting with the settings and 3 of renderinganyways here's what i've got sofar:

The Chevy Nova one kicks ass...

...the 3000GT one is a bit hard to see because of the erratic camera. But again, the Nova is fantastic!!

i agree, the nova moves very realistic and natural. great stuff!

Indeed this plugin owns. The viewport driving is fun. video looks great, agreed with dr.feelgood

looks very nice, 3000gt is a bit weird because of the camera, the nova is good, reminds me of those obstacle course things you get where you run in and out of tyres

IMO, i think the Nova needs to be lowered But thats awesome simulation. The 3000GT needs to have a smoother Camera. One that sticks with the car, and the car movement needs to be a bit smoother.

Thx for the replies guys. As for the camera in 3000GT animation i wanted to see how it looks...i think it would be better with materials and not just clay. As for the Nova animation it sure is a bit too high. i will lower it before naxt animation. Anyways heres what just finished rendering. Hope U like it :

I really like this amination. Drifting 3000GT is like a dream. Always wanted to make something moving not standing.
Can you tell us more about this plugin?

[Oscar]

Well...basicly the plugin offers the real time driveing in the view ports. Vehicle studio however offers better physics...tho it's a lot more complicated than MadCar by Karba and most important thing is that Karba's plugin is totally free. As for animation i was thinking of doing a bigger one...with materials and some great cars...but since i don't have so much time now i'm looking for a co-worker on it... anyways any of You people would wanna give it a shot with me just PM. Next test animation soon...as soon as i get some free time
