Alpha Chewy the Rat 1.0

Thanks, its a crazy idea I know :D Got big plans for Chewy... Not really, haha, but would be cool for a video series like a tv show. Chewy saves the day, or makes a disaster out of it. Surprised it still works!

Haha, That would be cool to have. I actually have an Alligator in mind that would be easy to make walk with its small legs and low to the ground wont fall over. It would be over sized and also would double for a speed bump. But large enough it can bite a car. Think that wont work and be a speed bump. Maybe two sizes.

That is in the Repo too! It is very large trap. I need to remake it better. Was really new at jbeam stuff when making these.

Thanks!

Thanks! Yeah that little guy.. I need to redo the Ref Nodes. I had no idea then how to make them follow it without going all over the screen. It is why they are anchored and fixed.

Thanks! Enough people make cars... I do like to make crazy stuff.

Thanks! Maybe I will make its rear shoot out some fire in a update lol :D

Haha, that would be possible to scale using Angelo123's Jbeam Editor for Blender. Probably have to make some adjustments to weights and springs.

I had rats for pets too in my first marriage. Was her Idea. I thought they were boring little pets that did nothing but hide. Bought it all kinds of tubes and all they did was dig a hole in the paper stuff and hide. But they came out to eat when feeding time.
I also had to see the ugly side to them when I did pest control and saw things they did as wild animals. So I can see it both ways.
As far as making them squeak, I had not idea at the time how to make custom sounds but that is a great idea. I would have to see if ChatGTP can help with the car triggering the sound based on proximity. I have a lua for random sounds something can make like a dummy talking, or sounds when a beam is damaged, but none for when a car is close. Will look into it though, thanks for suggestion !

Thanks! Chewy has 9 lives like a cat. Can't keep a good rat down for too long.

// ["ref", "back", "left", "up"]
["br3", "br27", "bl8", "br9"]

// ["ref", 0.00000, 0.00000, 0.00000],
// ["left", 5.00000, 0.00000, 0.00000],

// ["up", 0.00000, 0.00000, 5.00000],

Make those changes and the Ref nodes will be using the rats nodes. I experimented with that but it was very jarring. Not sure how to make the nodes stable with something hoping around so much. Other than make a mechanical gimble that also attaches to the rat the the nodes are in.

I left that stuff in the Jbeam in case someone wanted to use the nodes of the rat instead of standard Ref Nodes that I anchored.

It was almost frightening how close the body twitched like a real rat... Did you see the eye lids :D

Thanks! I am not a car person... But I love the games physics. Enough people make car mods. I like making things that are different :D

Not the craziest thing I want to make... But its a start :D

Thank you for the 3 stars :D Rats are pests. But I can understand.
