This is what Runt says....


Ramps, Cars, Poles, etc.

... Now double click on it and set it from Default to No Collide... NEVER SET IT TO NO COLLIDE (FACING)!!! ...

Now we need to make the ramps effective. We're going to use the Purple Boxes. Go to a ramp, Right click and click insert. Now double click on that box and set it to 20 x 20 x 2. Move it around, use H and N to tilt it (it helps to get to the side of it to check) and double click on it and use the Above Ground up and down arrows to set it in just the right position. Do this for all the ramps. Right click and copy object, right click and paste object and align it and move around to make them effective.


What part are you having problems with ?

if you're using a stadium or dome model, MAKE SURE it is set to no collide, or it will mess up the truck.
