You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    I want to make a bending mesh for a bus just like this

  2. What is the issue? Include enough details if possible!
    I dont know if there is a way to deform a mesh so it looks like it is bending, is there a way to do it?

  3. What solutions have you thought of so far?
    I already have the meshes for the articulation and the attachment system for the bus to work, i just need to find the way to bend the mesh

After that, you should include more details if you have any. Try to make your topic as descriptive as possible, so that it’s easier for people to help you!

I’m sorry, I don’t know how good this can be depending on the issues with realism in ROBLOX.

But, you could try and use springs or rope and connect all the pieces together using that.

It is possible, but i dont know how, as i have seen a game that got this to work, look at this

I think they used some form of hinge . . . that is my best guess.

I would suggest messing around with the details of it and trying different attachment methods.

I been looking at ways to do this and i have found something called skinned meshes, they are like meshes but with bones, but i dont know how to properly rig bones for the mesh
