animation names for AI-tyres?

[Horst18519]

I'm designing a small AI car. But I can't figure what sort of animation I need that the tyres rotate when the AI moves.
Can't I use a predefined animation like "r_tyre_blurred_key"? :confused:

Hi Thorsten
Assuming your question is for FSX, I have found that using the name "tire_anim" works just fine. Call your tire whatever you want, but when you go to FSTools, tag the animation to tire_anim. Doesn't need still or blurred. Covers the whole gambit which sure saves on polys. There are two "tire_anim" listed - I have always selected the first one.

Thanks, Mike. I'll give it a try.
