What's the default scale for the workspace?
« on: May 21, 2012, 04:27:53 am »
I noticed my models generally appear quite large in the BZII map editor. What does one square equal in the Anim8or workspace? Thanks, Leroy.

Usually, one unit in Anim8or equals one unit in any other program. The squares in the default grid, however, is of variable size based on your view. To make it a fixed grid, go to Options->Grid...and set it fixed to whatever number of units size you want it to be.

I appears to be 10 meters per square from the look of it when I place a reference cube in the workspace. Truespace's equivalent appears to 1 per square. I see what you mean though about changing it to a different size though. Thanks Raxx, Leroy.

PS: can changes be saved as the default?
