...Quite a while ago, I once tried modeling a ferret scout car, but it really wasn't detailed or accurate at all. As usual, I was mostly just playin' around. http://sketchup.google.com:80/3dwarehouse/download?mid=1e2cfd36c3093f7544eb8c14f291fa5b&rtyp=s6&fn=ferret2&ctyp=sm&ts=1221944567000
I might try my luck again sometime, but I'd need some decent blueprints.
Great job on the god's finger! (crepuscular ray) ...just though the other name is more fitting. 
I myself have been trying to figure out how to create them in renders, or in post processing. How did you do it?
2 things: one, Is that when you go back to edit scripts sometimes the spaces will be double, and if that happens to one script several times,it can make it harder to read. Can that be fixed?
also, is there a way to have a OnTouch function work with specific objects?
...works for me, but the first time I tried It was a bit harder than expected. You should post the model on the forum and i'll have a look.
Nah, I'm not entering, at least not the first challenge.
There's already a thread for that

You'd still allow the current way of using our own sounds too, right?
...I've just started to learn if functions about 45 minutes ago, so I'm not that great at it, but I managed to make a 2 key switch, like a light-switch works 
if frame==1 then setVar("1",0);elsif key("up")==1 then getSetVar("1",1);elsif key("down")==getVar("1") then getSetVar("1",0);end;
Ah, the problem with garageband is that it records until the end of the last measure (mostly it's used for songs), so it records for a few extra seconds. It was never a problem for me though, because my mac can play as many sounds as a time as I want. 
I tried playing the explosion sound on a 1 frame basis once, the sound keeps playing even after the next one starts, and let's just say it was a bit loud 
On mac, I can play as many sounds as I want simultaneously, and can have sounds start for every frame. Don't know about windows though. Once I tried making a motor with sound, and even less than every frame it would start another loop.
For now, I'll make a few small collections, this one's assorted, I might make a weapons set, and maybe one for toy sounds or something, and later put them all into one big file as well, but for now, you have these ones.
also, perhaps some other modelers who want so make sounds
place the files in plugins>sketchyphysics3>sounds.
Wow, great material! A bit big though. (either that, or the street's just small)
its: playsound("gunshot.wav");100
the;100 represents the value of the emitter's strength.
...My current progress on my helicopter, even More improved. What do you think of the sounds+camera? 
(note, for sounds to work, the zip. file above must be installed correctly)
Ha! still below 2mbs!
W/S=thrust,
A/D=turn,
up/down=forwards/backwards (tilting),
left/right= roll,
R/F=aim gun (up and down),
and spacebar=shoot
...BTW, why are WAV files not allowed to be posted?
I was board, and decided to use garageband to record, and edit, random sounds for sketchyphysics. Took a while, but here they are:
UPDATED AGAIN: I added and edited sounds. This set NOW includes 24 assorted sounds, and can be used by anyone who wants to
%(#808080)[(No need to worry about copyrights )]
If anyone has or wants to make any other sound collections, you can post them here.
Also, I'll probably make more sounds later, so if you have any suggestions, feel free to PM me, or post a comment on this thread.
NOTE: As i've learned, these sounds may not work too well on windows, because the sounds on it can't overlap more that 2 or 3, and these sounds have a few seconds of silence after each actual sound. Too bad.
Render criticism; The reason I don't use background pictures of any kind (usually), is that when you do, you have to make sure the shadows are the same in the render as your background. You're car has soft shadows, straight down, meanwhile the house in the background has angled shadows, that are much more 'hard'. Just looks a bit funny is all. Also, in the later renders, the light should be coming from the sun in the background, and with more of a yellow-orange tint. Still, great job
