The idea behind showing these models is to give the player a quick view of the actual model that corresponds with a model file name. Most of the files have meaningful names however the builder will still find that he/she has to place the model in the level to see what it looks like. These will allow the builder to quickly view model images and thus save them time in level building.

Since the model names are often inscrutable you will likely wish to make use of the scratch space in the level editor by bringing out all of the models from a particular group of interest and copying and pasting those you wish to use from there.

Black models are used to surround indoor areas so that players can see inside the walls when the camera is outside them.
All screen shots are taken with a level of 64 x 64 size (smallest size possible). This allows you to see a relative scale of the model. Most are placed within the level area but some are much larger than the area.
Many of these images are not exactly to scale, the idea is to see what the image looks like rather than to see the exact size to scale.
Some model images such as ceilings and roofs will be taken from underneath looking into the sky.
Some model images look the same but are of different size.
Some models extend below the grounds surface when placed.
The models in this sheet are architectural and environmental. Models that are props, placeables, fx, body parts etc can all be viewed in other areas of the toolset.
