Fendt 200 Work in Progress - Realistic driving physics
The Fendt 200 is a compact, versatile tractor that is ideal for medium to smaller farms. This project aims to equip the 200 Fendt in agricultural simulator 25 with a significantly more realistic driving physics than the standard model offers.
Fendt 207 Vario - 79 HP
Fendt 209 Vario - 94 HP
Fendt 211 Vario - 124 HP
Fendt 216 Vario - 163 HP
What has been implemented so far:
Lots of animations (interactively control) engine start, open doors, joystick control and many more.
Structure and components: The physical vehicle structure was divided into individual components that are connected via joints to enable realistic nick and tank movements. This creates a dynamic vehicle movement that simulates the real suspension process.
Cycle suspension: The suspension of the front and rear wheels has been adjusted to have the tractor visible and physically correctly react to the bumps of ground. The travel, spring force and damping were set so that the tractor springs soft enough, but not too shaky or unstable.
Joint settings: The joints between components have been configured so that there is a natural mobility without the tractor being too strong on load or cornering.
Fine adjustment: Several iterations attempts to find the perfect middle ground between stability and realistic suspension, so that the Fendt 200 appears natural and dynamic on trips on the field and road.
Next Steps:
Further fine tuning of the suspension values for even more realistic driving behavior
Integration of sound and animation effects to improve the driving experience
Testing and optimizing under different soil conditions and load situations
This project is a living work in progress - the aim is to make the driving experience of the Fendt 200s as realistic and dynamic as possible.
You just have to make a Fendt 1050 Vario!!!!!!! , your realistic tractor physics just change whole driving expierence, I love it
Finally, the new FENDT 300 VARIO, but production is presented by Fendt Model Gen 5 NE Gen 4. Gen 4 is a 2021 model with another shaped bonnet.
