This all seems like it works well and is a good tutorial but I'm not sure what I've done wrong, the wheels move and turn with the inputs as expected but the car stays in place. I'm a beginner at unreal so I've probably just missed something really obvious.

[@ContinueBreak]

This is made for Unreal Engine 4. If you're using Unreal Engine 5, it will not work by doing exactly the same things. UE5 uses different vehicle systems and components. Also, Unreal Engine 5 Chaos Vehicle Pawn supports n-wheeled vehicles, so you should be able to make 3, 2, 5, etc wheeled vehicles by using it without using a separate component for that.

[@zillionnnzhang]

THANK YOU

[@StevenDiLeo]

Thank you for creating this! I followed along both video and written documentation in UE5 using your third wheel model, but i'm not getting any movement on the vehicle :(

[@ContinueBreak]

Chaos vehicles in UE5 should support 3-wheeled vehicles now, so I suppose that this component might not be so actual anymore. Usually, people complained that you had to enable PhysX vehicle plugin for UE5 to have it available in UE5. If you took my example project and simply opened it in UE5, then it will not probably because there's no PhysX plugin enabled.

[@StevenDiLeo]

@@ContinueBreak I just downloaded your finished project files, loaded it up, and you're right. The physx vehicles needed to be enabled, else compile errors occur because it can't load the simple wheeled component. However, even after enabling the plugin, I am getting the same results as when I built mine from scratch. No throttle or steering controls are active, and the vehicles start leaning. Odd! I wonder if this is a UE5 bug, or if you have to set up vehicles differently. Anyways, if you figure out how to get this simple component vehicles working in UE5 I'd love to hear how you got there :)

Hey, I have another question. When you go to regenerate the physics asset, there is now way to regenerate the wheels in UE5, as there is no Options menu to show the bones like in the video. Is there a workaround? Again, thanks for all the help!

In UE5 instead of the Options button, there's a gear icon on the right side of the search bar.

If you mean, will it ride to the location if you use Move To node, then probably no. You'll need to add additional logic to get it working.

[@walney2008]

hello, could you teach movement of tanks like in the game world of tanks, also of ships like in the game world of warship?

[@UstedTubo187]

So I'm assuming that the standard Vehicle Anim Instance animation blueprint Wheel Handler node only handles up to 4 wheels right? If we want to animate all the wheels in the 20 wheel tank, what is your strategy? Is that covered in another video? I'm guessing we have to use a copy bone rotation node in the animation blueprint, but I didn't know if there was a smarter way.

[@ContinueBreak]

I just tried to rotate one wheel to the sides with a 20 wheel vehicle and it worked, so I assume it should work. Wheels are rotated when it moves forward and backwards, that's animated by anim instance, so that should have been enough of proof that it works with 20 wheels. That rotation also is done by anim instance.

[@UstedTubo187]

@@ContinueBreak You're absolutely right. I tried it with a six-wheel vehicle, and the middle wheels weren't turning. I must've done something wrong, because when I tried it again today it worked just fine with the standard setup in the anim blueprint. Thanks for the reply, this video helped me quite a bit because I didn't realize that the other simple vehicle component existed or had the functionality I'd need to make a vehicle with >4 wheels.

[@andyp123456]

Thanks! I wasn't able to get the normal vehicle physics component to work on a motorbike, but this works well for very simple motorcycles. However, locking Y seems overkill, since it's stops you pulling wheelies or going up ramps. The problem now is that if I only lock X, the bike is stable until I turn it around - then it falls over. Do you know of any solution to give the bike a bit more freedom but only prevent it from falling over?

[@ContinueBreak]

Default UE4 vehicle pawn only works with 4 wheeled vehicles, that's why you didn't get it to work with a motorbike. I don't know a solution to your issue. I would probably search if there are some UE4 motorbike examples or just search for how motorbike physics works and then try to replicate that in UE4.

[@moto-eo9vq]

It's quite complicated but you would have to go into relative rotation physics I imagine. I have been making some physics but it gets to a point that it is quite limited unless you build everything. I have some physics that would work for a superbike for example with limited roll, roll more on x axis with higher speed etc.

[@andreypopov5308]

How to implement the next moment, for example, our character has wheels instead of feet, it turns out that the right leg has a wheel and the left leg has a wheel, as well as the character has animations, how to implement riding on such a character? well, to make it easier, let's imagine that he is on roller skates, please explain how to add wheels to the standard unreal character in a blender

[@ContinueBreak]

If it's on roller skates, why not just use animations that he's riding roller skates and use the default character movement component? Or if it has like vehicle bottom, then why not just put the top part of it on the vehicle component as a character?

hi, the handling of wheeled vehicle is terrible when you turn over 30-50kmh ... are there parameters to improve the behaviour ?

You could try to change values in wheel blueprints. Change the center of mass offset for mesh, adjust the mass value in the movement component, there are a lot of things that you can try to change.

Hi! First of all, thanks for this tutorial. As others have pointed out, simple and to the point. That said, I can't find the Set Drive Torque blueprint node in UE5. What can I do in order to make it work? I want to attribute different buttons to accelerate each wheel for a prototype and the closest I could find is Set Max Engine Torque, but that doesn't allow me to specify a wheel. Thanks!

[@ContinueBreak]

I just checked in UE5 if you have the PhysX vehicles plugin enabled and add a simple wheeled vehicle movement component to the blueprint, you can get a set drive torque node from that, I didn't test if that actually works. I could not find PhysX plugin in UE 5.1 version plugin browser, so they probably have removed it. But it looks like they have added their own chaos wheeled vehicle movement component, where you can adjust individual wheel brake and drive torque by using a set drive torque node.

[@du0lol]

Im using UE4.27, and it seems that the 2 wheeled vehicle on the sides just keeps rotating to whatever direction i steer to, I click left once and it keeps rotating left even though in the bp it shows that its zero-ing out the left wheel turn torque and the right wheel turn torque, anyone has this same issue ? Edit: Im using the same exact thing for a 4 wheel vehicle and its behaving the way it should, it is side steering as intended, its only with 2 wheels that the vehicle doesnt stop steering

[@ContinueBreak]

It probably keeps turning cause of inertia not cause there's torque added to the wheels. Physic simulations, especially ones that are used in real-time in game engines, will not work as things work in real life. It might be some inertia calculation issue or something like that. Maybe it will stop moving after several minutes of rotation, and it goes for so long cause there's not enough drag calculated in simulation or something like that. Maybe you could fix that issue by changing some settings for the movement component or wheels, I don't know. Or you could try using UE5, which uses a different physics system. Maybe you will not get that issue in there.

[@johndoe35717]

the wheel handler doesn't exist

[@ContinueBreak]

In Unreal Engine 5 it's named wheel controller. Also, this tutorial is made for Unreal Engine 4 which uses Physx physics for vehicles. In Unreal Engine 5 they are now using Chaos physics, so all vehicle-related components are rewritten and this tutorial will not fully work, you will need to do some additional work to make it work. One of the things that you need to change is the External Torque Combine method for wheel blueprints to Override, to make the Drive Torque nodes to work and you need to have Set Throttle Input value not 0. There might be some other things you need to do to get this working. Unreal Engine 5 default vehicle pawn now supports N-wheeled vehicles, which might be a better thing to use if you want to make a vehicle with more or less than 4 wheels.
