The electric vehicle is about 4cm longer than its predecessor, while its width and height remain the same.The new Model Y is initially being offered in two variants Long Range AWD and Standard Range RWD. The former can reach 62 mph in 4.3 seconds and has a range of up to 447 miles, while the latter hits 62 mph in 5.9 seconds and has a range of up to 368 miles. The new Model Ys range has been improved thanks to enhanced aerodynamics and the use of tires with lower rolling resistance.Meet the new Model YMaximum efficiency. Smoother rides.

  • This Tractor Tire Simulation Set Up in Unity Is Surprisingly Satisfying
    cgshares.com
    An artist known as Lancaster showed off a nice soft body tire simulation made for a 3D tractor in Unity. Redditors really appreciated the satisfying view, although some didnt quite agree on one definition of a soft body.Whatever your opinion is, Lancasters goal was tire deformation and not any metal or plastic deform. These wheels behave like real physical tires and emulate internal pressure. It needed to be as simple as possible and look as real as possible.The artist used colliders inside the wheel that were connected to each other. The soft body effect was achieved with customizable forces in the connections. For steering, they used a configurable joint and two separated rigid bodies.LancasterYou can also find a Star Wars-inspired hover bike on Lancasters Reddit page, also well received by Redditors, and we hope this success will lead to more projects by the creator.Meanwhile, join our80 Level Talent platformand ournew Discord server, follow us onInstagram,Twitter,LinkedIn,Telegram,TikTok, andThreads,where we share breakdowns, the latest news, awesome artworks, and more.Source link The post This Tractor Tire Simulation Set Up in Unity Is Surprisingly Satisfying appeared first on CG SHARES.

  • Assassin's Creed Shadows Director Reveals Why Game Was Delayed A Second Time
    www.gamespot.com
    Assassin's Creed Shadows has already been pushed back from its release date more than once, but the most recent delay has a good reason behind it. Ubisoft recently showed off what Shadows' two protagonists--Naoe and Yasuke--can do with their parkour skills. And those skills were part of the rational behind giving Shadows' programmers a few extra weeks to get everything ready.Game director Charles Benoit told IGN that the additional time was used to polish Shadows and balance the progression. However, he noted that the really difficult issue to deal with was the architecture of Feudal Japan, which wasn't intended to be used as parkour surfaces."The Japanese architecture, the roofs [are] super complex," said Benoit. "Probably the most complex thing that I ever worked with if we compared to Odyssey and Syndicate. We needed specific codes and specific animations to support something super fluid, changing the transition of the parkour to make it even more fluid. So that's one of the specific feedback that we heard that we wanted to address, and it really improved since the last few months."Continue Reading at GameSpot

You can even start playing a new game today, as Team Ninja revealed a surprise launch for Ninja Gaiden 2 Black, a remaster of the studio's 2008 action game.
