Object types

The vehicle model consists of a main object and optionally one or more subobjects.

This is usually the vehicle body, excluding small independent parts or special objects like the steering wheel, wipers etc.

Subobjects

Subobjects are standalone 3D models belonging to the vehicle model. They can be loaded or saved independently of the main object.

There are several types of subobjects that can be created, such as steering wheel, internal mirror, brakes, mudguards, wings and other attachments.
