Im new at trials evo and im trying to make an object have physics well outside the physics bubble area even if I scale it up to its max its not working...Does anybody know how I can achieve dat???

if it outside your physics bubble, then you have to use OPEs...Anything with physics has to bu used within the physics bubble..also, dont max your bubble as you will have issues with tearing etc...You need to use an OPE to animate whatever it is you need to do..Animate is another term used to explain something moving outside the physics bubble....what are you trying to ANIMATE???

did you know that you can not only enlarge your physics bubble but you can also move it? most of the bubble is normally wasted off the front of the screen and not being used so u can move it so that the bottom of the bubble is just overlapping the driving line to register the rider and foreground objects but the rest (majority) of the bubble is then covering all the background giving you more distance

if youve tried this and still no good then best bet is to do what morfy is saying, good luck

smeghead89 ...........thanks I will try dat for the pinball....but the A bomb is too far to be in it.....

[rlmergeuser]

Hmmm you saying pinball makes me think it could be what I done a while ago, do you want something to move in order for it to activate something? That's what I'm guessing, all I done is had a trigger linked a physics event, so when you hit the trigger the physics would turn on for the object you want, then I just used a area effector to give it a little movement, the rest is history

im trying to make a pinball and a bomb have physics......OPE??????? Is dat a Object Physics Event???? if it is ive try dat already but it didn't work....

[rlmergeuser]

Im just a noob im just trying to make the pinball have physics before I get to it without bein in the physics bubble....

[rlmergeuser]

I don't see why you said the OPE isn't working.. But just glued a area effector to the object then on the driving line put a area trigger down, then hook it up to the physics on event, then that goes to the object, make sure the area effector is pointing the direction you want it to go, if its going to fast then play around with the force setting in the effector, that would be the easy way I would say

[rlmergeuser]

thank you I will try it....and get bck to you all....

[rlmergeuser]

no luck I tried the physics event but it the ball wont move....wen I toggle physics in editor mode it does but wen I test it I doesn't.....unless its in the physics bubble it just wont move....
