    Hello.

    I am doing what I thought would be a fairly simple car rig: a body with 4 wheels.

    I set it up per a very helpful online tut, and this is the result: https://youtu.be/KNNT7zw_m10

    I've only used the 'wheel_ roll_bind' and 'wheel_bind'. I've also tried just using the 'wheel_roll_bin', and I get the same issue: the wheels snap up into the body. They roll if I move the rig, but orbit around the axel. (which would make sense given their orientation) They steer fine.

    Here is a dropbox link to the project: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/wyz2d5q9tmocu7nyajus6/rig-test-sample.c4d.zip?rlkey=jr6zp3k71nklxkwseg2sslon2&st=2b0y13l5&dl=0

    Any suggestions would be so appreciated!

    Thanks.

        Thank you SO much Dr. Sassi!

        This is one of those very short turnaround TV jobs, and this really helps me get there.

        Have a great Halloween and weekend!
