I exported a sketchup model to a rigidbody (the model is a long tube). everything works fine, except whn I drive the car through it the floor of it is flat gray, and there is no relief. how do I add shadow relief to the model?

Export a rigidbody shadow model from sketchup, and copy the file into your rigidbody folder. Don't know how it would work with a tube though, because it hasto be a closed hull, and tubes are not

I did that and it it a little better. Pointlights would work, but I am having a huge amount of trouble getting the skinmesh to line up with the rigidbody.

select the rigidbody
click edit(at top of screen)
click move object to something location with orientation
click on the skinmesh
