[Filipe]

That Small Car looks adorable, can you release a standalone beta of it so we can have a taste?

Please?

Indeed I can.

[Filipe]

Indeed I can.

Awesome!

[Filipe]

Hmm can you make the camera closer? It's way too far and raised up

Reuploaded.  Tell me what you think.

[Filipe]

The camera is better now, also you should give it a try and add hands on the steering wheel support, to make it work get the Support_HandsonWheel from another vehicle and place it on your ZIP file, and add hand models on your vehicle model, hands and hooks, the left ones are called lhand and lhook, the right ones are rhand, rhook, and just check some new vehicles that has been released lately since they use it, it can be really neat for those lego cars

Also change the namecheck.txt from Vehicle_LEGO_Small_Car to Vehicle_LEGO, the car won't show up in the add-ons list if I don't edit the namecheck like that

Ok, I'll give it a shot

And sorry about that.  The ZIP name change was a quick, last minute thing so updates to the file would be easier.

Ok, so I tried out the Hands-On-Wheel thing and the hands appeared fine, but now I have this issue:



The car is raised up in the front like something is under it.

[Filipe]

You probably edited something else by accident, I mean I never saw the hands alone doing such thing like that before, also damn that sedan looks awesome

EDIT: Try to raise the bottom of the collision box a bit so it won't get stuck easily on plate bricks or so, it gives it a better suspension for cars like the small car and the sedan

Ok, I've fixed the issues and made the collision better.  A new issue is that the hooks don't seem to color correctly.  The hands are fine, the hooks aren't.  Until it's fixed, I've uploaded the most recent Small Car with the better collision and handsonwheel.

Also, can handsonwheel be used in other places besides the wheel?  Such as putting one hand hanging out the window and the other hand holding the top of the wheel, to look more badass?  Or one hand on the handbrake/gear shift?

How do you mean the hooks don't color properly?
Also, as for other places, yeah sure, if that is what you want.
You just got to put those parts of the model at the place you want.

If you continue to have problems, please message me as i made the handsOnVehicle support script. :)
Though it would surprise me, it should work fine by now.
I haven't heard of any issues until this point.
If you message me, please also send over a screenshot of your problem and the version of the script you use.

If you decide not to use the handsOnVehicle after all by the way i would advise to at least let the player do the hug animation (armReadyBoth i think) when he mounts to the driver seat.
That would at least make it a bit more interesting. :)

Do the camper next

haha, looks like that is the majority vote

The hooks take on the same material as those used in the car already.  I'll try joining and splitting the hooks with the hands, so if it is a mistake on my part with blender, that will fix it.  And I will definitely use handsOnVehicle.  It looks perfect, and because these are Lego bricks, the steering wheel, column, and hands are easy to transfer among models.

You wouldn't happen to know the best method for adding brakelights, would you?  I know that the sequence needs to be named brakeLight, but I'm just not sure whether to use a scale animation, layer animation, or alpha animation.

Sounds like a problem with materials in your models as far as i can tell.
I am a simple script guy, i do not have much knowledge in the model part, but i think Filipe might know about the brake lights.

This is what it looks like.  With some finagling, I managed to make it worse and give no color changeability to the hands.
