apearing bridge ? | Forums

I used this youtube tutorial ( youtube.com/watch?v=qB67t-RyGRY )to do my bridge and it works good but I have one problem...

when I drive across it my bike seems to sink through the bridge and by the time you get across ( its 3 floor blocks long) you totally sink through? any help please

You mean the bridge pieces just start dropping down after doing little of that zig zag movement in the middle?

I did some testing and i see that making that second trigger turn the physics off from the bridge object doesnt really work, (for me at least) but when i made that second trigger to turn on the animation for that bridge object, then it worked. So don't try to turn the physics off from the bridge piece, but just check the animation box. Don't touch the physics box.

I hope that makes some sense.

I have a second bridge that turns the physics off and the bridge stays but as I ride over it my bike continusly falls through the bridge like at the begining just the tires will be poking through the bottom and by the end of the whole bridge the whole bike and rider fall straight through it. I wish I could upload a video but I don't have a capture card

i have a couple of suggestions.

first one would be to glue some planks under the bit that the rider goes on, in the hope it wont go through these planks and the metal plates

the other one is, if you have enough objects to play with, you could put game cameras along the entire driving line. if you point them towards the far wall (their normal position) they work as a kind of invisible track, so this could give the illusion of the bike riding the bridge pieces
