I had been asked by a few people on the vray forum to do a tutorial for some of the rigging i have on a suzuki samurai jeep ive been working on. I tried to get ahold of the 3dtotal people by email to see if they would post my tutorials on the site but never recieved a responce so i figured id just post here. If you goto http://www.elfpro3d.com and click on tutorials the 1st for the jeep is rigging the suspensions and the second is for rigging universal joints for the drive train. For my jeep the suspension and drive train are controlled by the motion of the wheels so if you use a script to calculate the wheel motion on a terrain or a plugin like "Newplugins car and truck" which calculates all that for you then you can use a wheel to drive all of the components found in my tutorial.
