Unit
Revision as of 16:14, 23 July 2024 by DavidJCobb (talk | contribs) (Figured out the simplest way to describe Skyrim's unit system. Moved conversion formulae to the top. Added info on Havok units. Removed the incorrect image: it may be a classic, but it's also completely wrong past the 128-unit mark.)
Everything in the Creation Kit is measured in "units".
- The game's measurement system is scaled so that 128 world units is equal to 6 feet.
- Havok collision data, meanwhile, uses meters as its unit of measurement.
The conversion formulae:
- Game units to Havok units: hk × 69.99125
- Game units to feet: wu × 0.046875
This table aims to give an approximation, though the numbers are much less precise then their significant digits may imply.
