Rigs of rods has a much better engine for crawling, articulation, ect. And it's free.
I tried 1nsane, I just couldnt stand the physics it looks nice though.I haven't play RoR, yet, (tried to install it and it didn't like that idea too much..) but I play a game called Insane (or 1nsane, how ever you want to spell it) and I made a Ranger for that game (well, two actually). I made one of my Ranger which is a 93 4wd ext cab, and then another of the 02 Mazda b2300 regular cab, that we had a while ago. I like it becuase you can make a car and see how it would look lifted and what not. It isn't easy at all, just takes quite a bit of practice, but once you get the whole process down, it isn't that hard, just ALOT of steps.
One that somebody else made:
My 93 Ranger
And my 02 B2300
As you can see, my two clearly are not finished.
I might have to look into RoR and making cars for it one of these days. it looks liek a really fun game
Once you get past the boxyness and start driving these rigs you'll see this game has an awesome physics engine.
Not really, all you do is open up the file with the editor and add/move nodes and beams. Everything is made from nodes and beams. All beams connect to nodes which act like ball sockets, so to prevent some things from collapsing you must triangulate, and other things like radius arms the ball joint act like heims joints. The details like the TTB beams, hi lift, ect are meshes which are actual 3d meshes made in a separate program and are added to the trucks by binding them to nodes. I'd suggest reading the Wiki at the RoR site, it has a lot of tutorials.
