hi all
im not a python person but it looks like i have to use for making realistic car games.
id like my game to look like this: click
with my veyron instead of a mini.:yes:
im looking for a python script that will help me make my game easier to make.
i now there is a tutorial on itherebut that is to complicated for me.
any simple tutorials.
thanks:)
Use the āvehicle templateā, maybe?!
Or download my demo/template and adapt it to your needs, maybe:

Bye
that was quick.
iv not tried the game out yet but looks good.
thanks
yes but thanks anyway.
i tried it out, but blender crashed, probably you game was high poly,
i moved the car on to a plane and got rid of everything else and it worked.
but in the logic key, its full.
to complecated for me, i need something easy and simple.
thanks anyway
hi again,
i did the tutorial anyway (vehicle wrapper)
and it kinda works, the suspension works when it land but wonāt move forward or turn the wheels.
Hi ionee,
I just rewrote and updated the vehicle wrapper tutorial today to 2.48. Hopefully, it is easier to do. (The number of screenshots is almost double what it was before.) If you have any problems with it, donāt hesitate to email me from my website. Iāll be glad to help if you have any questions about the tutorial.

yes!!!
i did it.
i used the python from the āfinished.blendā then changed the āOBā to veyron and it worked ill post a blend when iv finished texturing.

Hey Clark, you guys at tutorialsforblender3d are doing an awesome job, especially when it comes to Python API documentation and scripts. Now a realistic realistic car game also implies realistic gears. Do you think you could implement such a gear system into one of the tutorials?
here is my early bmw model in the game.
but iād like a reflection on the car when it moves, but you canāt do this without a python script, but i canāt find it. anyone
thanks
uh oh! i canāt upload .zip 's to blender artists
reflections are a part of materials/texturing.
If you are using GLSL then in the materials tab map a screen shot of the surroundings to reflection and reduce the opacity. Iām not sure how it works in Multitexture
Hi ionee,
If you want true reflections on your car, youāre going to have to use the Video Texture module like vitorbalbio did. But if you just want your car to be shiny, you can use a reflection map.
I just did a short tutorial on making things look shiny in the game engine.
http://www.tutorialsforblender3d.com/GameDoc/Shiny/Shiny_GLSL_Quick.html
It only covers Blender GLSL Materials. Iāll be adding shiny for Texture Face Materials and Blender Multitexture Materials in the next couple of days.

I have always loved that tutorial, however, a few things I am wondering.
iāv had i look at that and i cant find āshiny textureā.
thanks

If you are looking for the exact same texture that I used for the reflective map, download the āfinished blendā and unpack the texture.
If you want to know what to use as a reflective map: Step 4 of the Step by Step Instructions on page 3 of the tutorial.

- If the car is on its side, it turns as though it is right side up. What can I do to fix this?
When my car is laying on itās side or is upside down and isnāt moving, it doesnāt turn when I try to steer it. Your car does?
- If the wheels are not in contact with the ground, the controls have no influence upon the rpm of the wheels. How can this be fixed?
I donāt know of a way to fix that. The tires rotate because of the friction between the tires and the road.
- How would we get smoother rotating of the wheel? Would IPOās be the answer for this?
Iām not sure what you mean.
If you are asking how to make tires rotate smoother around their object center axis, I donāt know. Iāve never noticed a problem with that.
If you are asking is how to make the steering of car smoother, you can use an IPO to turn the steering tires.
I use python for it. MaxTurn * (1 - speed/maxspeed) The faster your car goes, the less the steering turns the tires.
If you are using the keyboard to steer your car, you can also use gradual steering. The longer you press the keyboard key, the more the steering tires turn (until they reach the max turn amount). If you want to see the code for it, go the download page of the Vehicle Setup tutorial on my webpage and download the CarSetup_Example.blend. The python code is in Car_1_Handling.py

thank you very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,ā¦ phew breath:oā¦ very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,ā¦ phew breath:oā¦ very, very, very, very, very, very,ā¦ phew breath:oā¦ very, very, very, very, very, very,ā¦ phew breath:oā¦ very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,ā¦ phew breath:oā¦ very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very,ā¦ phew breath:oā¦ very, very, very, very,much:o for that shiny tut it is helpful on an omniscient sort of level of understanding thingy.
Iām looking more for a python script but thanks anyway
bmw.zip here i did the same thing with the scripts to my other cars.
enjoy iāl post some more later
I did the shiny texture one and it worked
thanks
heres a pic:
just got to lower the shiny
