Released Track Objects

[aeffertz]

Anyone make a barrier like so:

Do you need it solid, or is it just for looks?
I could probably put one together fairly quick.

Well, it'd be nice if it was solid but if it's free I can't complain.

On second thought, I just looked up an actual picture and it seems like it's even simpler. I could probably make this up in Blender if you don't want to. I just don't know how to make them have collisions.

There are a couple ways, one is a script from this thread (http://forum.mxsimulator.com/viewtopic. ... on#p472605) and then there is this one (http://forum.mxsimulator.com/viewtopic. ... =collision) should be sort of self explanatory. I think boblob did a tutorial on using the 2nd one.

Ain't that a bit dangerous? Imagine landing on one of them

I haven't been there in years but if I remember correctly, they were some sort of composite material, not concrete.

[JT43]

Ah I see, they look like concrete, even if it was a composite they still wouldn't be nice to smack your body off. Be better if there was just track markers instead

Better to take yourself out than multiple people. You kinda want a nice barrier in between the two lanes when you are traveling towards each other at a fast pace. You'd really have to mess up to smash them hard.

It's a jump where the barriers are though so if it does go wrong then you'll probably jump off the bollards

I dont know one word you are typing. I go into a trance with that avitar.

You should be able to make the barriers with one cube then loop cut the bottom third then scale the bottom face. I did make a collision tutorial, for the shape you should be able to put a simple plan in the centre and put a few edge loops vertical. Easy m9

I think they're just styrofoam.

[Boblob801]

It's stupid to have jumps side by side like that. They'd need a fence

[aeffertz]

I think they're just styrofoam.

Thats what was thinking but couldn't remember exactly.

As far as being side by side, I don't see the problem. I mean, that's exactly what supercross is.

[JT43]

Ahhh they could be styrofoam! That wouldn't be so bad to land on

[Boblob801]

Different speed conditions. It's always been a no no to do it like that in mx, more ruts, error etc.
