Like in Inferno II, how do you make tires spin in place when you drive on them?!?

1. Make a tire and enable the physics on it.
2. Then make some random object to act as a base (physics off).
3. Then put one of those rotation hinges between them 2 objects.
4. Glue the tire to the hinge.
5. Glue the base object to the hinge.
6. Roll

Didn't try this out, but it should work. I'm pretty hopeless with glueing and hinges and stuff (and english) though.

thanks sipe! but didn't inferno have metal poles sticking through the tires?

Hmm. you're right. I watched a replay. Inferno's tires are actually easier to make. No hinges or anything. Just stick a metal pole through a tire, glue them together, and put the end result on top of 2 logs for example. Oh and the tire and the pole has to have physics turned on of course.
