MadCar 3 is a plug-in for 3DS Max for quick rigging of wheeled vehicles and their animations by simulating the control. This new version allows rigging vehicles with any number of wheels, and with any of their mutual arrangements including motorcycles.
There are simplified behavioural settings for each of the wheels and related components, which can be fine tuned if required. This allows to simulate motion of any type of vehicle - from a race car to a heavy truck. Animation is created during simulation in real time. Simulation can be controlled by keyboard, joystick, game controller or steering wheel. It is also possible to set up ‘Follow path’ and ‘Follow the Object’ mode.
The package also includes a procedural map that generates tire marks on the surface over which vehicle is moving (V-Ray only).
3ds Max versions: 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022
3ds Max Design : all
Tire marks require V-Ray
OS: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, 8, 10 all 32 and 64 bit
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (included in installer)
User must have local administrator rights with Windows XP to use MadCar. on Windows 7 administrator right needed only during installation
Users are provided with the same installation file for both Workstation and Render node
MadCar.exe
Workstation can be used only when license is properly installed, and provides access to all MadCar options.
If MadCar does not find license file it switches itself to Rendernode mode and only can open and render files created with MadCar Workstation
Rendering is available both locally and over network.
To install the program you need to run the MadCar.exe.
for versions 3.026 and higher please see https://docs.rendering.ru/en:cerber-protection
For network rendering just install the same file MadCar.exe. Installation procedure is the same as for the Workstation, but skipping Registration process. Rendernodes do not require registration.
Submission for network or distributed rendering should be done from the PC with the activated version of MadCar. The rest of render nodes involved in the network or distributed rendering do not need to be activated.
Each MadCar license comes with unlimited render nodes.
manual installation on render nodes:
install 1 machine with the *.exe file then copy pluginsMadCar.dlo to other rendernodes.
Once installed MadCar can be created from command panel:
Create > Helpers > MadCar
Plug-in includes the following object types:
- Suspension is for damper.
- MadCar is managing skin.
- Start Position sets the initial position of the car.
- Trailer Hitch and Trailer Tongue object for connecting vehicles.
Do not scale and mirror these objects. Only rotation and movement is acceptable.
All objects are linkable with geometry
Chassis can be linked with geometry of a car frame.
Suspension can be linked with geometry of brake blocks and suspension mount parts.
Wheel can be linked with wheel geometry.
Chassis sets the overall dimensions of the car, its mass and solidity at sudden wheels collision with surface.
- Length equals to half length of a car.
- Mass is the car mass in kilograms. Solidity is the car’s structural stiffness.
Mass value determines car’s reactivity/inertness. The heavier it is, the stronger the suspension sags, and slower the car accelerates and stops.
Solidity sets deformation resistance. At sudden collision of wheels with surface wheel axes can bend and diverge from the initial position. Divergence is less at high solidity.
Position of the rotation axis affects the behaviour of steering wheels. Below are examples for the values of -75%, 0%, 75%.
Suspension section controls car suspension settings such as length of crossover suspension links, spring rigidity, oil damping, buffer gas tension, suspension block limits, Engine drive, steering and other settings.
Length is the length of crossover suspension link.
Top Stop and Bottom Stop are the top and bottom suspension block stops
Wheel Drive is engine drive.
Steering Gear is steering linkage. Wheels will turn when the steering wheel turn.
Handbrake sets the wheel locking with the handbrake.
Plug-in presents a model of gas-oil damper.
Damper shift is the shift of the damper’s top holder
Presets help making quick setup without deep knowledge on damper functioning – you have an opportunity of selecting the preset of damper parameters.
Rigidity Factor lets you correct the resulting damper resistance value without fixing multiple parameters one by one. In most cases using these settings is enough for regulation.
Additional Damper Settings are for detailed setup of damper parameters. These settings are intended for advanced users with ability of fine-tuning of damper parameters.
Running-in test mode the system generates road irregularities in real-time mode and displays damper response to them.
- Spring Rigidity is spring stiffness.
- Buffer Rigidity is buffer stiffness.
- Running-in Stand Setting are the parameters of test stand.
- Mass per Damper: it is the mass which falls on the damper. For example, if the car with 4 wheels has the mass of 1000kgs, then 250kgs will fall on each damper.
- Gravity: it is the acceleration of free fall/ gravity factor. It is presented in centimetres – 980cm/s2, meters - 9.8m/s2 or inches - 386“/s2.
- Road Knoll Rate is the frequency of knolls spread upon the road.
- Road Hole Rate is the frequency of holes spread upon the road.
Wheel section sets the dimensions and properties of wheels.
- Width is the wheel’s width.
- Ruggedness is the wheel’s stiffness. The less the ruggedness, the deeper the wheel’s elastic deformation upon surface.
- Grip is the constant of surface friction. The greater the constant of friction, the less the car skidding, but with that the chances of roll-over at tight turns are higher. At the installation of wheel make sure the arrow of wheel points to outside direction, not inside the car.
Tread Pattern – tire mark. Used to generate textures of tire marks. An example of the orientation of the tread.
When setting a wheel the wheel arrow must point outside and not inside the car.
This object represents the skin combining all car components into one integral unit.
Car Setup is the car’s assembly into one unit.
Dummy Size sets the skin’s size.
All components occurred inside the skin will be automatically applied.
For the assembly of the car there should be one chassis object inside the skin together with the equal number of wheel and suspension objects.
Each pair of suspension and wheel should have equal position as it shown below:
Position all the car components according to the needed configuration. As below, for instance:
Then press Update (Lock Component)
In case of successful assembly the components should be locked (it will be impossible to move them) and blue coloured as shown below. After that any changes to the components will not affect the whole unit. To update the parameters you need to press Update (Lock Component) once again.
If you want to unlock the components and change their location press Reset(Unlock Component).
Parameters
Parameters are general parameters.
Gravity is the acceleration of free fall/ gravity factor. It is presented in centimetres – 980cm/s2, meters - 9.8m/s2 or inches - 386”/s2.
Surface is the object of surface upon which the car will be moved. After the selection and changing of object and loading of the scene it is necessary to press Update Surface. It is connected with the algorithm of wheel interaction with the ground, this algorithm uses ray-trace accelerator which reasonably speeds up the counting process and makes counting time almost independent on the number of polygons within the surface.
Start Position defines the object location of which will be the starting position of the car. If the object is selected, then after pressing Update (Lock Component) the car will be replaced automatically to the starting position.
Animation
Animation includes counting and animation settings:
Step/Frame fixes the number of keys for the frame. High value of this setting improves accuracy of counting, but reduces the speed of counting; it also leads to the increase of the scene’s size on HDD. Low value of this setting may lead to uneven running of wheels at high driving speed.
Samples fix the number of counted/imputed samples per step. High value of this setting improves accuracy of counting, but reduces the speed of counting.
Low values of the above settings may lead to wheels vibration and car sliding down the sloping surface being at rest with brakes on.
Driving Parameters
Driving Parameters are car driving settings.
Rudder Sensitivity is the response of steering wheel. Lower value makes the rudder less reactive. Fix this setting at low values to get smooth/slow turning of wheels, high values will lead to fast wheels turn.
Rudder Angle is the ultimate steering lock.
Bike Driving turns on motorbike control system
AutoBalance helps motorbikes to keep balance and prevents from falling
Motorbike rigging video tutorial:
Differential Drive Sensitivity - multi directional movement of the wheels when turning. E.g. when turning right, the right wheel will be spinning backward, left - forward.
Throttle Sensitivity is the response of accelerator pedal. The higher the value, the higher the impulse given to the driving-wheels.
Brake Sensitivity is the response of brake pedal. High value makes the braking more active/intense.
Max Drift Speed - Максимальная скорость проскальзывания колес выше которой автоматически отпускается газ и тормоз. Чем меньше этот параметр тем более предсказуемо ведет себя машина но меньше возможностей экстремального вождения. Малые значения (1-3 км/ч) рекомендуются для начинающих водителей.
Time Delay is the time delay between frames, it is set in milliseconds. Time delay is necessary for the distinguishing of CPU time needed for the mouse and keyboard reaction. If the value is too small driving control may have late response or even be blocked. In this case time delay should be extended.
Driving Type is the type of driving control. The following variants are possible:
Mouse is driving control with the mouse. Mouse movements to the left or right direction make the wheels turn respectively. Mouse movements up and down correspond to acceleration and deceleration. Wheel’s running forward throws into forward gear. Wheel’s running backward throws into reverse gear. The mouse right button is responsible for handbrake.
Keyboard is driving control by means of keyboard. “A” key is for turn to the left. “D” key is for turn to the right. “W” key is for accelerator. “S” key is for brake. SPACEBAR is for handbrake. PAGE UP throws into forward gear. PAGE DOWN throws into reverse gear.
Joystick driving controls are: 4 is forward gear. 2 is reverse gear. 3 is handbrake.
Steering Wheel driving controls: Gearbox handle is responsible for gear shifting (forward gear/reverse gear), marked button is for handbrake.
Target is a target object/ an object to follow. Forecast frames present the number of frames where the car foreshows the movement of object for the track calculation.
Drive
It activates the car driving window.
To start/stop driving press ENTER.
In order to join two vehicles add Trailer Hitch to the track in place where trailer will be attached.
Add Trailer Tongue to the trailer in place where truck will be attached.
Join Trailer Hitch with Trailer Tongue as shown below
Vehicles are now joined.
From now on if you move the truck the trailer will follow it
MadCarTrackTexture. Is used for making tire marks.
MadCar Object - the MadCar object from which the texture generating traces.
- General Intensity - the intensity of the traces in the normal movement of a vehicle.
- Brake Intensity - the intensity of the traces when a wheel is slipping.
- Samples - quality of marks. High values slow down the render.
- Base Bump Intensity - total intensity of the bump.
- Pattern Bump Intensity - bump value of the tire pattern.
MadcarTrackTexture need to be used in material of the object MadCar is driving on.
It can be used in any slot (Diffuse, Bump, Specular etc). In texture settings you need to specify which MadCar object it belongs to. If you need marks from multiple MadCars you need to mix several MadcarTrackTexture
Collisions in MadCar.
There are 2 types of collisions to be calculated in MadCar simulation1. Collisions between the wheels and the ground2. Collisions between ”Collision Spheres“ and the ground.
By default, a car's body does not simulate the possible collision with obstacles or the ground in a rollover.If you need to simulate such an event, you need to add”Collision Spheres” to MadCar rig. Place them so that their combined volume is repeating the shape of your vehicle.
Try to keep number or spheres as little as possible (optimal number is 10-20), otherwise it may slow down the process of simulation. The “Rigidness” parameter controls the stiffness of the collision, and the parameter “Grip” controls friction. Obstacles that you are going to impact your car should be included in the geometry of the surface.
Collision Spheres usage example:
We recently released a baking script
after you dropped it to your scene, you need to add to interface via 'Customize User Interface'
when baking, actual objects need to selected
Common problems
MadCar algorithms are based on real world physics, this requires real world dimensions of vehicles and other settings for correct work.
Controlling your vehicle
For perfect results in controlling your vehicle make sure all physics is correct, and simulate step by step
Start driving untill the point its starts going wrong, stop, rewind to the point it was fine, and continue from that pointthis applies to any controls you use
Following target or spline
MadCar based on the simulation with real life physical properties - and this is not always predictable. Abilities of a vehicle are limited by its physical parameters, turning radius, friction, brake force, power of the engine etc. But the motion of a target is not limited, so the vehicle can not always follow the target, because it has got real life physical limitations, so it can only try to do it.
License errors
In case of license malfunction and errors (which can be caused by disk reformatting, re-installation of the operating system or components replacement) you are free to address the developer at any time by sending your request for a new *.lic file to the e-mail mail@rendering.ru
