Title: How do I change prop sizes????
Post by: markham22 on August 03, 2007, 11:13:40 AM
Hello
I'm curious as to how jeronij changed the size of his prop in the below pic.
As you can see the actual prop (right) is very small but it appears much bigger in the actual game (left).
How is this done..

Thanks for your help.

I believe this is done in the Plug-in Manager, where you set the "occupant size" of the prop to whatever suits your needs, ie 5x5 meters,
4x8 meters, etc etc...
Hope that helps.  :)

Actually I believe this may be done when you BAT it, and can not be done after.  I could be wrong.

It not done in the BAT. Pretty sure its done in the PIM (plug-in manager) or the iLive reader.

It can be done with the reader easily. Check picture attached. This technic it's widely used, specially in W2W buildings/lots, so it can extend the building/prop a little over the limit of the lot, and making that way the lot to blend with others without gaps in between.

Thanks for the help.
The "Occupant size" did the trick :thumbsup.
I want to create puzzle pieces (props) with lights. The only way to do that is to keep the prop at least 2 meters inside the tile. I couldn't get it to work, but I think I can now. Thanks to you guys. ;D
