Excellent full 3d rotary sim mov
I found this last night and thought it was an excellent simulation of both chambers of the engine complete with exploding views showing the different cycles and individual componets in motion.
I had posted this in the lounge in an older "Rotary Gif" thread but thought it was worth putting in here as it's not really a gif but a cool little movie.
Well worth the download.
Full Animation (5mb)
Source site with chamber view and eccentric shaft view:http://www.nomicos.com/

Thanks for posting it! They are pretty technical about this 3D simulator, down to the slight delay of firing the leading and trailing spark plugs.

I wonder how long it takes to create something like that. I work with Autocad all day at work but nothing that complex - only land/boundary surveys that are much more boring.
That free animation program looks crazy. I'll have to tinker around with it.

after 3 years its really not a repost
anim8or is great!! get it and try some of the tutorials like th ebird walking and the hand etc. those really help. after making those (the bird took a few tries to get right- especially making sure the parts of the feather stayed together and on the bird
)
i made a crude block shape space ship then i did a scene with it mimicking star wars
ship flies into the camera view with camera forward and starboard of the ship. ship does a small turn and wiggle then comes along side of camera then past- camera pulls back, over and behind ship as it flies away. it was really cool and impessed the hell out of the wife![Smilie](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
hehe im inspired now- gotta start playign with anim8or again
