This is the trailer for my upcoming free Blender tutorial how to create a basic car rig without using third party Addons. All will be done with Blenders internal functions.

The whole animation will be controlled just by one single value. No complex keyframe animations are needed. You define the direction and speed and the car just drives.

As always I'll explain all steps in detail, so you don't need much Blender experience to follow this tutorial. This tutorial is not aimed at reality, but you'll learn some basic functions to create your own rigs.

Learn how to:

  • Define your own driving paths
  • Create automatic wheel rotation
  • Define the wheel speed and rotation by the cars motion and direction
  • Control the steering wheel by the current front wheels orientation
