Hi Brian. I'd like to let your tricycle appear in a chapter of my SketchyPhysics test story "Matilda's small world". The lanterns fit very well in the dark scenery... Is that possible? The short video will be called "The visitor from China".
I would post it on YouTube in a few days (with credits to you).

Thank you all! This is only SketchyPhysics and a little bit try and release...

I have changed the wall into a group and physically static, the bed into nonstatic and the table into a box... Please try it.

Excuse Frederik. That was not meant so seriously. Have too much cigarette smoke breathed so ... please do not go out off the forum!

Frederik is a little bit stoned... What is a double plane window? I would prefer the old free Plugins "Lattice-izer" and "Lattice Maker" - belief both by TIG.

not bad!

Hi Anton, please stay tuned to your good work, even if the feedback at the moment is relatively low. There are only a few people that can handle such complex tasks as confident as you. You made SketchyPhysics to run very stable, and MS-Physics is again a quantum leap. I'm very excited about it and I think many other people also. Thank you!

It runs better with driver...

fly (fight) with the birds - not so relaxed...

not so relaxed...

In German I would say: "Ich trinke nie mehr Osterwasser!"
And after the Google translation:
I never drink more water Easter!...
My text on the banner of the plane is nonsense and no one can understand it...
Drinking "Osterwasser" means in Germany, to take in friendly company relaxed a little bit high-proof alcohol. But Easter's now long gone ...

A short flight around Matilda's castle...

the short flight around

Hi guys, once again some stuff to try and to learn - Thank you!

Yes, you can. But the video quality is really bad. I could send you a better one or post it on YouTube in a few days.
I would like to develop the model in a SketchyPhysics- or WIP-post regarding Physics, driver, passengers, environment, rendering and video quality a bit further. Just for fun.
And if there is any resonance (unfortunately the SketchyPhysics branch sleeps currently a little) I could tell something about the process. Your model is a good example for that.

Hi Bryan, after a few days, after some tuning and many testing a possible solution for Your tricycle. It does not really work for the laws of physics, but it moves. It is now more a self-propelled electric bike but the driver jumps maybe later on ...

@ ntxdave: Thank You! The plane is completely modelled in SketchUp with SketchyPhysics (plugin).

And here is a short solution for a path following plane. I think it is a bit complicated and that there are simplier solutions for a calculation of the direction vector. If anyone has ideas ... I'd like to replace the forward flying cube and the LookAt function by a Rubi-formula in the script of the plane.
The model is a simple double-decker from the warehouse without Physics. I have it relatively heavily rebuilt and have added physical properties. The scripts are used from earlier SketchyPhysics posts about camera curves and path following object by Mr.K. and other authors and are also slightly modified.

how it works

After the first test flight comes now the first start ... Despite some obstacles that seems to work quite well.

first start

My goal is to test in a small rural "world" different ways of animation with SketchyPhysics
and to knit a short story. Started with experiments on Physics-waves of Anton S., further
experiments were carried out with emitters - as an example of chimney smoke, which could not be recorded normally (except with screen recorders). I start the post with a new test with the aim of reproduce a moving water surface.
The relaxed flight missing a bit of content. This should, just like the environment model,
develop a little further.
The tests are carried out even with SketchUp Pro 8, SketchyPhysics 3.5.6 and Twilight renderer v.1.5.4, as these plugins converge very round. Later I hope to be able to transfer the whole thing to a current SketchUp version and to MS-Physics.
If anyone has ideas on content for the story or for Physics tests, then post it here.
Here is a first short flight over the lake. Since only files can be appended with a maximum
size of 2 MB, the videos are heavily compressed and scaled down.

first short flight

As pilou mentioned - SketchyPhysics - with unexpected results... not really for natural stonewalls. But it's worth to try...

Splittest 2 - unexpected

I could take on the assignment of physical properties with SketchyPhysics. I would suggest the use of a type inverse kinematics. The tricycle follows a path and all movements lead to the driver from it. The whole thing could then be followed in a WIP under SketchyPhysics.
