Yo guys.

I know it's not related to Octane itself, but as far as you're skilled in C4D, maybe maybe you've got some good practice in this field.

I need to rig a car for aniamtion.
What would be the best way to do it? Which will give me best control over the car?
Would it be the one using dynamics (motor, connectors nad so on)?
Or maybe using Xpresso?

Do you have some experiences in this field?

Thanks in advance!

this is a work i did a while ago, it's not perfect and requires a lot of keyframing
but it gives you a lot of control over your final animation. I am planning to refine the project this summer!

let me know if you manage to do something good with this rig

@ten - thanks. I read something about this Drive plugin. Heard it's very good for my purpose but I'll consider buing it.
@turtles - Thanks bro! I'll check it today with my car!
