Hello all!

I found today that Iw ill be needing a grid I can use to set up plots for an entire sim, so that I can figure out the layout beforehand, because I wish to plan the entire sim layout before actually starting. Just seems smart to me.

Anywho, I have made two files that make this easier! One is a photoshop file, which includes templates doubling in size from 16m2 to 1/4 sim. Each square on the grid represents 16m2, the smallest size increment possible in SL.

The second file is a 24 bit targa, which does not include the size templates, only the grid. This allows use in applications that can't use PSD files.

The files are both 1024x1024 pixels, which allows enough space to actually layout the basic shape of buildings and such as well as plots.

Any problems with it please let me know, I hope other people might find it useful!

-Also, I posted here because it seems like it would be more useful to builders than texturers, though I posted a link in the texturing tips forum as well.

To download, click that link, select 'free' and then type in the 'validation' key thingy. It may take a minute to show the validation key, no worries.
