Houdini Realistic Interactive Vehicle Drifting And Sliding Dynamics_3 VOLUMES

One of most powerful effects in vehicle motion is skidding brakes, this is what we will work on it. We will use the particles for doing this. Be ready to learn a lot of stuff about particles. We will start with the concept of skidding process and then start creating the simulation; adding the parameters of skidding like the rotation angle and the value of the road friction force where the vehicle is traveling. You can make this road is slippery or rough. The motion that we will have at the end will be procedural. With out this approach it would take long time for you to create it manually, but with us it done by simply hitting the skid brake key on your keyboard. This is very useful knowledge for animator and CG artists. The use and combination of different Houdini contexts is awesome and you have likely never seen this approach in any other Houdini
