my project - Vehicle Simulation

[MichaelJPCT]

one of the best screenshots i have so far. most recent 3D model,(i made dozens of models before this one , as practising)

cockpit MFD rendered with RTT techniques

This looks good! Keep up the good work
Will you release it as a game at some point?
I'd be interested in trying if so.

[MichaelJPCT]

i think i will make it releasable in the next year. but not through google or other app stores.

[MichaelJPCT]

hope you like these

Looks cool. I like, how the landing gear behaves.

[AeroShark333]

Nice physics!

[MichaelJPCT]

with gif files, i can show you more interesting things.
this one shows the vehicle drifting, when rear tyres have much lower friction coefficient, any vehicle can do this.


the colored polylines is a tool for testing purpose.

with jpct-ae engine i can easily control the render order of multiple Worlds, very flexible - my app uses dozens of RenderScene calls to render the whole scene. i have to thank Egon for providing this engine and his much support.

Nice work though!
Does it also take into account that the friction coefficient could be different for surfaces? (road vs. grass for instance)
Or is that to be planned?

[MichaelJPCT]

ground material affects friction, yes. the 1st gif here demonstrates the effect - all tyres are set to have 0.48 mu on tarmac, and 30% less on grass/mud/gravel.
in 2nd gif all tyres have 0.8 mu on tarmac (default value).
in 3rd gif , a constant 48 m/s cross wind acts on an airplane.
there is a friction graph in every gif indicating the ground force on the vehicle (in vehicle axis, top down view)

this is a funny thing. i like the effect of the PC game Sniper Elite, so i did this, but without advanced visual effects.
