Hello, The easiest way to do it is:
1) Creating a big plane at 0 height (big enough so all objects can touch it)
2) Select all your objects
3) Select dynamic place
4) Move them all at y axis and all of them will stop at 0
You can watch my video how to do it. Its pretty easy.

I tweaked your scene a little bit which (i think) fixed your issue. As I see it, the issue was that the material blender was creating something like an “alpha effect” for super close objects (thats why my plane wasn’t visible, cause it was too far away). I changed the change range node so there are not total black areas and the “alpha effect” is not visible (or better barely visible). The blend color defines the visibility of the layer color.
I hope this fix works for you.
P.S. I am not uploading your textures, cause you already have them.
P.S. 2 I don’t know who made this material but it is super slow to render.

Hello Veronica,
What you are asking is kind of very specific. Maybe if you can share the .c4d file and explain with more detail the issue, someone might be able to find a solution.

Hello, I dont really see any kind of transparency in the white material. If there was, I would be able to see the blue plane I put behind. What I see is a lot of noise.

I have requested access twice so far. Having a google drive link with access requests might not be ideal.

Hello,
Without all the textures, the .c4d file alone isn’t any help.

Hello,
I have tinkered a little bit with the settings and I got to a point where the needles don’t vibrate. I baked the animation so it runs realtime. You can clear the cache and it will play .

I can implement that to my file. If you want me to please let me know. If you already found the solution then we are good.

Hello Tim,
I don’t know if they can found the files. I have created one test scene that might do what you want.
By moving the chair the wheels are rotating the amount of the travel they did. As you can see in the video, the text spline shows the angle the wheels are rotating and it is just for testing.

Hello Joanpablo,
It doesn’t fail apart. It doesn’t give you the result you want, cause your splines are not correct.
At first glance, when you replace the circle spline from my file with your spline, you see that the result is like this. (image 1).
If you change the “Spline Wrap” mode to “Keep Length”, you suddently see that it works, but only for that part of the spline. (image 2)
The reason it didn’t work at first is that the helix was very short with a small number o helices. The spline wrap stretched the spline and the result was like non existent.
If you start increasing the “height” and the “end angle” of the helix, you will see that the helix follows your spline. (image 3)
So to make this work you will need a a helix that its height is the same distance as your spline and with as many helixes as it needs to look correct. Also you will need to increase the number of points on the helix (subdivisions).
You can also make it work with the “Fit spline” mode ( in the Spline Wrap) but you will have to adjust the number of degrees only. Changing the height doesn’t do anything, cause the helix got already stretched to fit.
Either way, if you do it correctly you will end up with a result like this. (image 4)
