Well. These are about the most simple shocks you can make.

These are FAR from the best, doesn't handle the track to well, they break.


Kid, let go of your false hopes

It's not bad tough, it's a start.

Try to make them moore advanced with hinges as suspension etc.

This is a suspension i made soledly of hinges:

I hope it would give you an idea about what im talking about

Very nice as that style of shock absorber goes, but NOT perfect. Perfect does not exist. They can be broken if you crush them and don't have a whole lot of travel. Would rate an eight, but you get a four for being so cocky.

Oh, and CPS, hinges have their uses in suspension, but I wouldn't call them better or more advanced than springs. Especially with the improvements in hinge calculations with version five, now they're kinda shaky.

Frank, hinge-suspensions sure aren't that advanced. any1 can make a hinge suspension.

It's only the matter of making the hinge susp travel slowly and soft.

So, with hinges u are to "manually" adjust the dampening and strenght.

That's what's challenging with hinge susps.


And yeah, hinges have gotten pretty "shaky" now in the latest verisions, but that just makes it so much funnier.

I'm currently working on some serious hinge suspensions that uses like.. 200 objects where small balls attached to hinges represent gas and so on.
I've given up on springs totally.

How fun is it to just attach a spring to a arm or piston whatever and then slide it to perfection?

Anyone can move a spring slider

Oh and btw.

Here's an example of an "double citation" "advanced" "double citation" spring suspension

(found it in my scenes..)

these are pretty easily breakable. 4

did you even try it? it works great for me
