1. Right click on the car and select 'floats in the air'.

2. Make your car hover mid air (this allows you to put the rotation point under the ground).

3. Go to Prepare > Object movement, and drag the rotation point so that it is on the ground. You may want to put it at the front or rear of the car, depending on which way you want to angle your crash.

4. Now drag the car down so it is on the ground again.

5. You can use Page Up / Down Keys and the controls to adjust the roll and twist of the movement.

CRASH! BANG!

I seem to recall all those shows (like Knight Rider too) always cheated - one shot of the car approaching the jump, then another of it leaving the jump, another of the car sailing through the air, and then a final shot of the car landing (and buckling the suspension, sometimes bending the whole chassis) before they then drive away in a pristine car. Worked for them, anyway


Exactly how I remember it too. The occupants of the car rever suffered any injuries either. Unless they were the bad guys obviously!]]> Wed, 17 Aug 2011 20:15:52 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic1234-dukes-of-hazzard--car-jump.aspx Message from mysto
I think it would be easier to film a car jump in separate shots as Ziggy suggested. A shot of the car approaching the jump, another of it leaving the jump and sailing through the air and then a final shot of the car landing. Trying to capture everything in one shot is possible but very very time consuming given the current method of controlling objects. At least it was for me.]]> Wed, 17 Aug 2011 20:12:34 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic1234-dukes-of-hazzard--car-jump.aspx Message from ziggy72 ]]> Wed, 17 Aug 2011 18:57:22 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic1234-dukes-of-hazzard--car-jump.aspx Message from Quoling Wed, 17 Aug 2011 18:18:27 GMT
