This is the walk-through for the dorms of the Royal Dancers’ Academy
It is quite an engineering challenge to put something like this together given the wide array of heights between species in my game.

At the end of the hall on the second floor, the door looks out of scale.  But it is a standard 80” tall door the walls are just 20’ tall

One of the things I struggled with was the toilets.  Seems like a trivial thing but to come up with a design that would allow for the diversity I ended up using the Japanese design

I’ve designed the building based on a 14” x 3” load beam with a 16” on center design.  Ended up having to do with steel because a micro-lam beam just wouldn’t support the span or weight needed for larger species

It almost seems a shame that weeks of work went into something that will not be involved directly in my game and it’s only for reference and continuity in my story-line.  Still, I felt like posting the video here for anybody that’s helping things along in any way.  Now I can get back to work writing the story

Seems like a lot of effort went into this! I have a hard time designing buildings and stuff (I'm more of a people/creature artist) so I really respect what you've achieved here. Props!

The funny thing is I can’t draw my way out of a paper bag. I got board 1 day and decided I wanted to brush up on my C++/VBS and found out about RPG maker. I do however, insist on a good back story and just can’t slap some random crap together and see if it works. Granted drawing on family and co works as structural engineers might be a bit much for a game but I feel inspired by companies like Bethesda

Beyond that there’s an old saying: “those who can do, those who can’t teach”. And I have a terrible time trying to explain things to the artists/voice actors I will inevitably need to hire. This video and subsequent images are for the
