Hi,
I'm having some problems using the DynamicObjectCar. I'm using Z as up and I'm wondering if that could be the cause of my problems. Does TrueAxis set the rotation axis of the wheels from the v3SuspensionTop/Bottom values or something else? Or is it hard coded to have Y as the up axis?

It looks like you have found a bug. It appears that car wheels always use Y as up no matter what.

The only work around for this I can think is to use Y as up and Z as forward for cars.

Offtopic: y-axis seems to be considered to be up for a kind of historical reasons. Z-axis should be up really, but lot of engines do use y-axis as up, especially graphics engine.

You could still pursue z-axis, but you would have to be carefull on more than one occasion (personal experience).
