I was thinking about making some custom scenery for a park I am gonna be working on but I don't know How big to make each object so they fit in one grid box or corner.

I'm probably gonna use sketchup, its alot easier to make simple stuff.

I remember someone posted the size for sketchup, but I don't know what it was & couldn't find it in a search. I'm sure someone who knows will give you an answer soon hag365.

dont use sketchup...just dont you wont be able to get it the right size, and its like impossible to get the textures to work, when i tried it only imported one mesh and well...it doesnt work...you can use sketchup if your going to use milkshape to resize an stuff...but its not a good choice for rct3 scenary making.

i dont use sketchup much, usually Blender:up: . Its quicker for the basic scenery im creating.

Milk-Shape really blow's, With Cinema4D theres a plugin that can automatically detect size and limitations.
