Futuristic Planetary Explorer
Hi everyone,
Just wanted to share with you all something I'm working on for one of my assignments at Uni. The brief states to create a NASA Rover, however, we have been given complete creative freedom with the design and function, so I decided to make a futuristic moon buggy.
I am also posting this to ask a question regarding the rigging, everything is set-up bar the front, I am having trouble with my rig, I need it to obviously steer the front wheels, which I have done by using a 'LookAt' constraint to a dummy in front of the vehicle, however, due to having full suspension setup, I can't simply make it so the suspension works on the same dummy and I can't for the life of me figure it out. Everything I do cancels out one or the other. (Ignore the big point dummy, that was part of a failed test and forgot to remove it before screencapping).
If you need more info as to how it's all linked together, just ask. I desperately need this help, and I can't really find any tuts online on rigging an open wheel vehicle with visible suspension components.
