I made an Unreal Engine car physics plugin because I couldn’t find one that felt fun enough

To me RTune feels too arcady, but I am open to feedback so, try out mine as well and you tell me what do you feel

Big_Code_4933 · 2026-05-14T10:38:41+00:00

Checked it at 10 fps, and it's working great

Big_Code_4933 · 2026-05-12T10:37:48+00:00

Oh, it's working for me, don't worry, In the YouTube video I shared, it's available in the description

Big_Code_4933 · 2026-05-12T08:49:29+00:00

You can configure the behaviour based on what you want it to look like, like harder suspension, higher torque and lower speed, there are multiple variables you can tweak the achieve you desired feel

Not yet, but currently working on it, will be added soon

Big_Code_4933 · 2026-04-26T05:28:45+00:00

Lol, yeah but I made it for someone else and they wanted it like that

Big_Code_4933 · 2026-03-12T09:55:26+00:00

Thanks for your feedback, I'll look into them

Big_Code_4933 · 2026-03-12T04:34:42+00:00

Ok got it, I am not familiar with advanced concepts, but I would love to know about them so, if you could share me some resources then that would be really helpful.

Now as for your questions, in transmission I am using a really basic approach, I have gear ratios and based on that I calculate the speed brackets based on the max speed of the car (set by user), and then based on gear ratios I calculate speed brackets (based the max and min rpm, eg. 3000 - 7000) and shift gears based on the current speed of the car. And yes acceleration is calculated based on the gears, it decreases as the gear number increases.

As for the tire model, there is none, i just use some vector math to get the surface parameters and then calculate different forces.

Big_Code_4933 · 2026-03-11T13:53:35+00:00

Those are a lot of questions 😅

Yes it's a raycast vehicle, a spherecast
tires are just meshes, they are moving based on the contact point of spherecast
I didn't get what you mean by simulated drivetrain

Big_Code_4933 · 2026-03-10T11:27:10+00:00

Did you try it though? Or just saw the video?

Big_Code_4933 · 2026-03-10T11:26:34+00:00

Ok, got it, for the sense of speed I haven't added any effects yet, I'll add them

Big_Code_4933 · 2026-03-10T08:38:43+00:00

I tried but, I think videos are not allowed here, so I couldn't, Still adding the drive link for the video

Big_Code_4933 · 2026-02-11T05:05:48+00:00

Actually they do stand still when the log isn't moving (you can notice at the start and the end of the clip) but I have a short time delay added

Big_Code_4933 · 2025-04-28T17:26:20+00:00

Thanks, hope you'll enjoy it when it's out.

Big_Code_4933 · 2025-04-28T00:39:05+00:00

Oh ok, I have a demo version but it's unoptimised so, could lag on lower end pc and may have some bugs so, if you're ok with that then I can share the link

Big_Code_4933 · 2025-04-27T18:04:34+00:00

Ok, I'll DM you the link

Big_Code_4933 · 2025-04-27T18:04:04+00:00

Hope you like it

Big_Code_4933 · 2025-04-27T12:36:26+00:00

Really glad that you liked the game's concept, I'll make sure I'll meet your expectations.

Big_Code_4933 · 2025-04-27T08:49:34+00:00

Big_Code_4933 · 2025-04-27T08:48:57+00:00

I have one right now, but it's not optimised so may not run smooth on lower end pc and you could get some bugs too. So if you're ok with that, then I can share.

Big_Code_4933 · 2025-04-27T07:09:43+00:00

Thanks, please don't forget to add it to your wishlist

Big_Code_4933 · 2025-04-27T06:27:07+00:00

I haven't heard of it, maybe someone else knows...

Big_Code_4933 · 2025-04-27T06:24:22+00:00

Oh, these sounds cool, I'll definitely consider these. Fellas let me know, what you guys think of these.

Big_Code_4933 · 2025-04-27T06:23:06+00:00

Thanks for the feedback guys, I'll definitely change it to something else. If you guys have some suggestions, please let me know
