mynameistooshort Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Well I noticed that grids aren't very good, I can't make my interiors very well because they won't go together perfectly, they just have edges stick out at the wall and small but easy noticible leaks, is there any way to get a more precise and smooth grid? Cheers, Tiber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, TiberI am assuming you are using the snap-to-grid function, so go to file/preferences and in the box, movement tab, you can adjust the snap to grid value...the values are divisible by 2 so from 64 go to 32 or 16 which are more precise. After you set your first piece, get your next piece ready and then in the same preference box, click on the select snap reference button...take the red circle target and move it over the first piece you placed and it should turn white...double click on it. This will set your first piece as a base and all the other pieces should snap together more precisely.If you already have a bunch of pieces set, pick one piece to be your base and do the snap to reference thing, then try re-aligning the remaining pieces again.

mynameistooshort Posted November 29, 2010 Author Share Posted November 29, 2010 It didn't work I just get the angle as shown in This[/url I can't get them perfectly straight, I just want interiors perfectly in-line.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDC519 Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 It didn't work I just get the angle as shown in This[/url I can't get them perfectly straight, I just want interiors perfectly in-line....From the angle of your pic, I can't tell if the 2 pieces are at the same height (holding the x key while moving a piece is used to raise and lower the pieces). If you have the snap to grid button in, the snap to angle button in, both pieces are at the same height, and the new piece is rotated properly, (the piece in your pic is not rotated) then they should snap together. You may want to check out this tutorial: http://geck.bethsoft.com/index.php/Main_Page and review the "layout and using kits" section in the "my First Vault" tutorial. Maybe that will help also.

This was very informative. I was missing the aspect of actual #'s to use, wasn't sure if each set of interiors had different measurements to use and the like. Very useful response, thanks! ebb2012 (brand new, just doing a restaurant mod for buck's steak how in its original location, fun stuff)... there I've posted :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
