No, you can get a Prefab pack that has some house and furniture models, etc in it. Look in the Getting Started Thread.

I use the full exporter right now, and by the size, do you mean poly count, or the actual filesize?
Filesize: 145 kb.
Poly count: 988 polies.

Wow everyone, those are awesome! :yes:

Here's what I have so far for my lot.
Hidden/Spoiler:
My house from the air, it's intentionally rather small compared to others. I hope it looks Star Wars enough. I hear domes are all the rage on Coruscant.
Image
Once you enter you see me, a small Kirby ewok thing
Image
Oh, look a hole in the ground.
Image
It looks like I'm on one of Ilum's spirals. I wonder why the rooms float by themselves.
Image
In the first room we find a meeting room to discuss things on GT or just hang out(This first room is all one object)
Image
Turn left and you're in my kitchen
Image
Image
Turn right and you're in the bathroom, don't worry it has a secure airlocked door
Image
In my bedroom I have a giant television for playing Smash bros and other Wii games
Image
Also in my room is a desk with my laptop(that's my actual desktop, the wallpaper is an original creation) and some things I would be "working" on.
Image
Image
Here's my speeder, the weapons don't fire anything.

If you mean that the collision face is on the inside of the tunnel select all the polys you want to be on the inside
or if is everything part of the tunnel section just select the tunnel object. The select Modify/Polygons/Invert Polygons
that basically turns the model inside out.

As for the stretchy bits would be better to go over it on Xfire for the step by step

Sorry that all I've done for this so far is the seeker droid, Rep...certain circumstances have prevented me from modeling as much as I'd like to.

I'll get the seeker droid exported and send it to you for whatever use you deem suitable.

By the way, wow Ewok; that's all underground? Looks pretty sweet.

Yeah, I know, but if I remember correctly, Rep included a .doc file in that thread.

[EDIT]
Apparently it's not in that thread, but I know I saw it somewhere...

[EDIT2]
Oh, it's in the locked thread. Yeah, it was just a bunch of WIP ideas. Nevermind :P

I've almost finished my lot!

Screens:
Hidden/Spoiler:
The Lower Floor is a chatroom/mini Gallery, with tables, sofas, and Advertisements for my best map, Space Kal-Tarra in it.

Image

The upper floor is an office, for private meetings, and work. (not really finished yet - see bug Screenshots)

Image

There are also areas to chat on the roof and in the backyard.

Image
So, basically, my Lot will be a place for people to come and hang out and chat.

Wow everyone, this looks amazing! I guess this plan is working then, since everyone only has to do one lot, they put all their time and quality work into it. Then, all this will come together into one amazing city!

Say, if you want we can try and figure it all out together, so it'd be a two person lot :P We'll make something cool out of it
I've never really done much in Zero but I'm sure I can figure it out fast enough.

Only if you agree, naturally.
