Resizing Using Header?

Clazzy · Posted: Sun Jun 20, 2004 7:16 pm Post subject: Resizing Using Header?

I've seen the ominous header in all its glory. Now I just want to know, how the hell do you use it to change the scale of the voxel? Basically, I want to resize RA2 voxels to TS size. If someone knows and can reply, that would be greatly appreciated.
I'm guessing it has something to do with the Scale box but when it's set to about 0.08, fiddling around with it will (in my case) invariably screw it up.

I posted how to do manual bounds in another thread, anyway.

For the min and max x it would b as follows:

MinX := 0-(SizeX divided by 2);
MaxX := (SizeX divided by 2);

Where SizeX is the size u want the X axis to be.

I think u can easily work out the rest since they're the same.

Call me stupid, but I still don't quite get it.

Yes, I was horrible at math during my school days Sad

As well, does this mean that I could double the size of a TS voxel, add a load of detail to it then half the ingame size with header editing, to make it more detailed?

It wouldn't be more detailed or have better normals like some ppl strangly think.

There is only 2 reasons to change the bounds:

1. u need to slightly change the size of the voxel (only reductions work)
2. if ur voxel has animation its good to make its ingame size slightly smaller, this means animations shouldn't have "holes" when they move/animate.

Oh, well there goes my idea.
