Gear animation

Hello everyone!

Been busy lately making a gear script for my next scripting tutorial.

In the mean time I had some fun with an early release and made this little gear animation.

The whole animation is driven by the small gear at the left and is all dynamic.

The file, ASP8, http://www.mediafire.com/?x5i7vzlh9v79cec

I should have the tutorial up in a day or two.

Nice Gears. Real Looking sharp edges.
Thanks for sharing the file.
Will this work in 6.2?

Only in 8, dynamics was introduced in 7!

How did you draw the teeth for the gears? When you make the teeth with the profile tool it will not work with the motor in physics. I have tried to do what you did a few times but the gears always get jammed up and stop after a few rotations.

The gears are made by the script I made for my next tutorial!
