    Hi,
    Is it possible to add chassis flex to a rear dead axle suspension??
    i mean, it is a solid rear axle for a FWD car.
    I see Rfactor 2 does accept a .pm file with solid rear axle, but it doesn't work when trying to add chassis flex to the autogenerated .ini file.
    Does it need some special step not included in the "Introduction to Physics Tool and flexible chassis...." guide?Thank you

    In what way doesn't it work? Does something go wrong when you create the two subbodies?

    Yes, big trouble. When i divide main body to subbodies I can enter the track, but physics crash instantly.
    I was trying to add flex to a pm file which connects body and rear axle by means of a ball joint (2005 Rhez suspension, rfactor 1). I think the ball joint is not working properly, for some reason. Once i convert the ball joint to bar type it works better. Hammer rear suspension (with 3 bars) works fine, then i suspect the problem is the ball joint...
    I just wanted to know whether Rhez suspension type is supported or whether needs some special adjustment...
