Hi All,
After going mad trying to get the vehicle command to work with objects made with DBPro, I thought I would take all the numbers and give the names like 'wheel front right', so the vehicle demo that come with physics, I have named all of them.
Now this is when I find out that some values do the opposite of what you expect, like wheel_rear_right_height#=0.2 I change to 1.2 and the front of the car rises up.
so far I think the height and radius varables work back to front.
have look and see what you think.
