This one intrigued me, so I had a bit of a play. The type of structure is useful for me in other things so I was curious about a quick way of doing it.

Baz, I was trying fredoscale when you posted, but I wasn't really able to get the desired result.
I was probably using it wrong, but I found it sloped the edges of the cards in the twist.

So I asked a quick question, which was immediately answered by rclub24 who pointed me to Chris Fullmer's Component Stringer. Wonderful plugin!

So a little play with that to work it out and then I jumped on my bike and roared off to my Doc appointment, a short 100mile loop, it's only about 20 in the car.

So to cut a long story short, too late I hear you say, with a freshly cleared head I sat down and made this 100 card stack in about 15min.
Basically, make your one card component, do a few calculations to get the spacing right, move the axis of the component to the point you want it to rotate from, draw a line the height of the stack you want and use Component Stringer to create the rest and rotate them.

It's a little too smooth but it gives a nice effect and is very quick to make.

Yeah, I also found that with the box twisting tool, your image looks perfect for what I am after, can you give a more detailed guide? And a link to the plugin?

Thanks

Yeah I thought about that, but couldn't be bothered rotating and raising it every time

How would I make one? I tried just extruding a plane and then rotating the top surface, but it gives are harsh line which I don't want. And when I smooth the edges and render, it still looks harsh. Can anyone help?

I want it to look like this:

Thanks

hmmmm

Thanks for these

Ah you're a legend, thanks mate

Just my luck lol will repost.

Was concerning trailer suspension.

What do ya mean?

Weird cylinders. Well I made a wheel by creating a circle and then using push/pull to extrude it. But when I make it a cylinder in the Sketchy Physics settings, it always seems to make the cylinder the wrong way! Eg. My wheel = O the cylinder looks like []

What am I doing wrong :S

That's awesome and exactly what I wanted, thanks very much Solo

I was after the road/run more than the truck to be honest.

The truck run featured in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPwyZQukvPU

I absolutely love it ;D
Thanks

Thank ya

My friend was telling me about an extension/ruby script that made the camera follow a path. Like an animation? Anyone know of it.

If so, please leave a messge!
Thanks.

Way to go, bump a thread that's over 2 months old -.-
