I was wondering if there's a way to export things I created in Google Sketch Up and imported to BAT, I want to export them to the game itself but it just wouldn't work! Anyone got a clue about what's going on here? 42.gif

    I did all of those stuff and I get to the part after I'm done exporting, and then I can't even find it in the lot editor! Although I did install it through the plug-in manager. Was it because I didn't re-texture it?  If so, are there any thorough tutorials about BAT texturing here in ST?

     I did, and it didn't appear at all 15.gif Could it because for instance, the building I imported from Sketch Up is too big in size? Or because of the textures? I'm completely lost!

    Once you have a .SC4Model file (this is what you get when you export something from the BAT), it should be in the my documents plugin folder, and it should appear in the Plugin Manager. In the Plugin Manager, click and drag the .SC4Model file into one of the categories to the left.

    In the Lot Editor, open a lot of the same type as what you made in the Plugin Manager, so, if you made your BAT a landmark in the Plugin Manager, open a landmark lot in the Lot Editor. The lot will need to be bigger than you BAT is, so, if you open the Big Ben landmark lot, which is a 1x1, and your BAT would need a 4x5 to fit, then your BAT will not show up until you make the lot size big enough to hold your BAT.
