Default Dimensions from surfaces and objects

Dear Forum-Members,
i got a problem with the dimensions of my textures for my objects or surfaces. i have to know the exact dimensions from my surface (pixel,inch or something), so that i can size my texture correctly.
i know i can form it in the TCE, but it would be good if i can size my texture exactly to the dimensions of the object or surface.

I hope someone can help

Default Re: Dimensions from surfaces and objects

With the exception of x, y, z Cartesian coordinates, the numbers have no dimension. They could be anything you want them to be.

I used to model my game objects to scale, but a 250m hammerhead destroyer causes some problems for AC3D so I scale the objects down to 1/100th and plan to scale to true size as I convert the data to a binary format.

In other words, you have to make adjustments yourself. You have to envision what the dimensions are, scaled or not.
