More complete documentation coming soon!
How to install
1. go to Edit > Preferences...
2. on the left change the tab to "Add-ons"
3. top right click on "Install..."
4. Select the Wheelwiz.zip file and enable it
Where to find the settings
1. Edit the overall dimensions > toolpannel UI
2. Customize the wheel > select the wheels > navigate to the modifier tabRig not working
These situations might lead to the rig not reacting to input in the sidepannel UI
1. Adding multiple rigs
it is possible to have multiple rigs in 1 document, however when adding a new one it wont react to the UI, as the first one that was added is still active. To switch to the new one, select any of the controllers or the wheel object and click on make active.
2. Changed names
In order for the add-on to function correctly the names of the following objects can not be changed (Rig, Assets, Rig parent / dimensions, Front_wheel_location, Rear_wheel_location and Wheel_setup).
Load in custom rims and tires
Enable the custom rim/tires and place your custom rim in the custom rim/tire collection
note:
1. Size; when adding custom objects make sure they are scaled to the correct size, as the geometry nodes editor does not work on custom meshes.
2. Origin; Make sure the meshes origin of point is in the center and the object is placed at 0,0,0 in the 3D space
Creating a mesh out of the setup
In order to make the geometry nodes setup into a mesh, follow these two steps
1. Enable realize instances in the geometry nodes modifier
2. Navigate to the add-on panel and click on apply rig
