Hello,
I've been trying to figure this out for a while, I've modeled a vehicle in maya to replace the default torque buggy. I've followed the wheeled vehicle tutorial, (http://tdn.garagegames.com/wiki/DTSMaya/Creating_a_Simple_Wheeled_Vehicle) and passed the .dts export to my programmer for implementation, but it doesn't work - the wheels don't combine with the wheel nodes and we end up with just the vehicle body resting on the ground :(
This isn't anything to do with the wheels export - we put the wheels i exported on the default buggy body and they work, it must be something with the vehicle's body model.
Finally getting to the point of the post however - There's a link in the above tutorial to a resource download that has a template example file that exports and works. It would be perfect to have a look at this resource to see if I've done anything different, or simply replace the model in the existing hierarchy but the link is broken!!!! :(
Simply then, does anyone have a maya .mb file with a vehicle that is all set up ready to export? OR does anyone know where i can download the missing tutorial resource from??
my warmest regards (and apologies for length of post)
