Sketchy physics problem

sha

Hey I was wondering whether it's possible to actually make any keys on my computer actual control keys for my car model for example is it possible to make the up arrow the acceleration or the down button reverse the car or the space bar handbrake and so on, this would be so much better than the slider controls

I see so the next update of google sketchy physics u mean
So any joystick for pc would do right?

p.S Thanks a lot for your replies it helps.

pilou

Yes with any normal joystick
But careful : type joyLX and not JoyLX, joyLx ... else nothing works with the joystick
(case sensitive )
When it's for joystick the cursor don't move, only with the mouse (maybe a little bug)
But of course the object move weel with the Joystick

By any chance, would u happen to know when the next update is?
Just wondering.

Absultely no idea, ask to CPhillips

Sorry if im asking too much but, do u know how to keep the camera following from the back and not turn to the cars side as it turns strongly or a 360 degree view around I just want it to remain following the back even while turning.

Probably early fall. I am enjoying summer too much to spend time inside coding.

Are you using Vista? There is a problem with plugins getting messed up by the local data store.

sorry to ask help from you. I use Sketchup 7.0 free ver. downloaded sketchyphysics3 RC1 (windows installer, Jun2009). when i use "joint connector", the screen show "Requires SketchyPhysics3 RC1". The "joint Connector" just can't joint the Hinge & other component. do i need to load any other files to plugin?
