I ended up writing a custom program to do it for me. Several months ago I was trying to animate the motion of a roller coaster along a track and I got so infuriated with Inventor because nothing was working. Hi on this this brings back some bad memories. I also have thought about using 3DS max, but not versed enough in it to set this up yet. Anybody have any other suggestions? Definitely something we would like to pursue if possible and be able to bring to other projects. Still not sure what direction to take on this and get this to animate inside Inventor without the carriages wanting to flip. Still no luck on the animation part of it though. I tried adding in some angle constraints with allowable in there between the carriages and the wall itself and they allow me to move the wall. That's the odd thing though is because they work manually. I think the carriages are wanting to flip and not remain stable. When I do this at the assembly level with the carriages, they wont work once I get to the curves. When I do this at the part level with Inventor studio, it works great and the points follow like they should. I tried replicating what he did in the video with creating a 3D path with work points to follow. I have it set up now where I can use transitional constraints and can get it to move manually. he does use transitional constraints here though. Went back and watched this video on how he did the train and motion.
