Inaccurate Scale of Everything ?

Hey Guys
I was wondering why the developers didn't make the game more evenly scaled ?

Why are the humans taller than the military vehicles and the military vehicles bigger than the civilian vehicles.

When you look at the scale between humans and building, humans are about 10 feet tall.

Be nice if this could be fixed.

Translation: Be nice if someone volunteered to remake all the assets as needed for that fix and made it all public instead of hoarding the goods

Which no-one's gonna do: "if you're good at something never do it for free."

Closest so far is what Atomic_Noodles has made, and I suppose G-E (tho IIRC his assets are for his own mod only).

Nothing for the buildings yet.

Its a video game from 20+ years ago.

It can be very difficult to tell the difference between small infantry on high resolution screens.

Also it seems like a waste of a good asset if you 3d model / spend time on making infantry.

It's a balance between scale, and visibility, it's why I'm not keen on the tiny infantry that mods like MO have/had, they lose so much detail on something that didn't have that much detail to begin with, so yeah, it's a style thing over being true to scale.

You could do what allot of mods do, open XCC scale down shp by about 15-20% and infantry will look more in scale...
