Title: Quick question on BATs' height
Post by: cogeo on July 04, 2008, 12:12:51 PM
Hi all,

Could someone please help me with BATs' dimensions and heights?

- What should be the height of each storey in BATs? I have seen quite a few complaints from players (too tall, too short, out of proportion etc).
- How about 1-storey buildings? With a height of 4, 5 or even 6 meters they would look tiny.
- How does the SC4's "squash" effect (due to the viewer's perspective) affect BATs' height? Is there some factor I have to multiply height (z-axis) dimensions with, to get the desired perceived height?

And something different (texturing):
- Is there some suggested texture for metallic (copper/bronze - with green/-ish rust)?

I would greatly appreciate any help.

Scaling the RL floor height with about 125 - 130 pro cent should do it.

Thanks vester! I'll give it a try.

Just clicked the link in your signature, the texture I'm looking for is... the one you have used in your Christiansborg Castle Church BAT. Where can I find this (link please)? Or it is a custom-made one. Any link to a set of similar textures maybe?

That is one Lars / Praiodan made.

I can ask him if I can give you a copy.
