Scale of exported .obj maps? #41

Closed Lombra closed 7 years ago

Lombra commented 7 years ago

Let me first say that I know practically nothing about modeling and mapping, so this might not make any sense.

I've exported a few different maps to use in Valve's Source/Hammer editor, but they are very small when imported, compared to the player model provided by Hammer. Obviously I realise that WoW and Hammer might be using completely different units or scale or whatever. I also think .obj is unitless or something? A character exported from WoW Model Viewer seemed to be of similar scale to that of Hammer. (coincidence?)

What I'm wondering is whether there are any numbers I can use to determine how much I need to scale up the maps exported using this tool? Or would that be impossible to say without knowing how Hammer works? (or even still impossible then?)

Thanks

I'm actually not sure either. The objs exported from the exporter will be the same scale as they are in-game. What scale this is exactly I'm not sure. Sorry.

One ADT should have1000 yards square according to cordinate system that is implementet in WoW

You mean the yards stuff mentioned here, right?

Yeah, so each tile is 533.3333 by 533.3333 "yards".
