Re: Advice Please - Blocking out a large urban scene
Hey JustColorado, Pros would probably use a plugin :) I assume you've googled for building modular structures/things. Here's a tute that might help you get your head around what you are doing when you are creating modular features:… -
Re: Advice Please - Blocking out a large urban scene
Thank you Mark and Frawmus. I think I asked my question the wrong way. I want to do this modularly based on a few different modular building sets.

I probably won't stick exactly to the real world map,… -
Re: Advice Please - Blocking out a large urban scene

In a way, its like making the entire thing out of collision meshes and leaving out 90% of the visual detail. Well... I think you might be biting off quite a bit. For the sake of…
