Your BATs are great! Please keep up the good work

[LordShadow 52]

Thanks!

oh. I have received feedback from many experienced modders, and they pointed to the small size of my bats. or rather it does not match the scale of 1:1 and scale of the game world. What if I rerender my released and new bats differently. What scale factor would you advise? 

[JP Schriefer 5,590]

The advisable scale is 133% in height.

Amazing work! Keep it up!

About scaling. 
If  i'm correct i somewhere readed that sims are around 3/4 meters. They atleast where longer than normal humans
at first for my bat used 200% for scaling i reduced this to 150% length and width wise  and to 183 for the heigh. The result is pretty good if  you ask me.

Correct me if i'm wrong offcourse but these are my 2 cents on this subject .

Yes, the Sim automata and many of the props are ridiculously out of proportion.  Everything else in the game is based off each grid tile being 16x16 meters.  In order to adjust for the isometric projection, everything should be scaled vertically only by 133%.  This has been the standard for many years now and more or less mathematically proven to be the correct scale to counteract the isometric squashing effect.  You are, of course, allowed to choose any scale you wish, but be warned that if you use other people's buildings yours may end up looking out of proportion.  I would suggest modeling buildings to real world dimensions first then scaling vertically by 133%.  If your buildings are fictional, not replicas of real buildings, then I would try finding a similar structure in the real world and match your building's floor height to its.

[LordShadow 52]

Yes, about a vertical proportion as I know, I use 133% vertical. The most important thing - to understand a common size for the entire building, real sizes seem to me small compared even with fitted models. Sims in the game look huge, several meters tall. And the most minimal roads, go in one cell, which is very widely for two traffic lanes. I think I should increase the building on all axes by 40-50 percent.

[LordShadow 52]

What i have with 130% increased size. I think its look better that BAT with real size. 

 

[JP Schriefer 5,590]

Great! It looks really good now.

[LordShadow 52]

Ok, i want re-render my BAT`s with new size, and relised Khruschevka`s too. Can i change the relised mods on STEX or i can create a new STEX-page for download? What better? 

[JP Schriefer 5,590]

I think it's possible to edit your file on STEX, like an update. It should be better.

[LordShadow 52]

thanks for the advice!

Yes, you can edit the upload and change e.g. the screenshots, add new ones, replace the actual download file with a new version, and so on. You can also change the version number accordingly and enter a description of the change. The edit functions are really powerful.

[jaredh 195]

that's a great improvement on an already great model.
