Hello all you SC4 mainiacs! Its time once again for yet another question from me (I'm full of 'em ;D). I was wondering if some of you folks use any kind of standard dimensions for stuff like wall height, door size, window size, etc. I've only recently started BATing and think I've hit upon the proper size for wall height (I use 5 meter high for single story wall). So if you use some sort of standardized dimensions for BATing and would like to share and maybe discuss, please do. Once again I thank any and all who read and reply.

And now for something completely different..........This site is great! I'm really more of a lurker and the folks here have made me feel really comfortable about asking questions. I salute you all  :thumbsup:.

First of all...wow, I have several lots you made that I totally enjoy. I have never thought of using the rendered view for detail checking as I tend to hit export and go do something else...next time I see the building is in game.
Also I did not know that tidbit about the squashing effect useful info there. I sorta dig the way you do it in regards to dimensions. It seems easier than what I've been trying to do. I seem to always find the hardest way to go about things. :D Thank you for the reply and the pic. Might I ask, when you make your building do you create seperate walls and put them together (like the tutorial on ST) or do you carve you building from a solid piece? I hope that makes sense hehe. Ive seen tutorials that use both methods but I would kinda like to know what someone whose lots I use and have seen in game does. Thanks again and may life treat you fair.
