Question by MadJohny · Aug 15, 2013 at 03:05 PM · physicsphysicmaterialphysics settings

Help making a physics material

Hi, I'm making a skiing game, but a very special one, it's really physic based, but weird physics at the same time, anyway, I can't get the skis' physic material to work as I want it to, could anyone tell me some good settings? what I want from the material:

 -Move mostly forward (instead of just sliding down the hill like if it was a ball;
 -Don't get too fast quickly;
 -Be able to leave the ground for jumps (but at the same time I wanted it to not leave the ground that easy, since the player needs some mercy to be able to stand up :p;
 -Don't bounce of the ground after falling;

And that's basically it, anyone could give me some good settings for that? I think I will have to look at friction direction 2 but I quite don't understand it, help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

Making physics materials is experimentation and tweaking.

Read this http://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/Components/class-PhysicMaterial.html

Tweaking the default ice material might be a good starting point

I did read that but I don't understand it quite well, and I also don't know what anisotropy is...

Your question is very broad, hard if not impossible to give a proper answer.

I recommend setting up a test scene with a tilted "floor", and drop different materials that you tweak to your liking.

I already saw that and it has nothing to do with what I want, the scripts are all already done I think and you have to buy them, and I won't buy it since it's nothing like what I want, I want something like this which was made by a friend of $$anonymous$$e, but he is on vacans now and he can't help me.
