It's loosely based on the floor plan from Exeter (sp?) catherdral. But pretty much just  "ran with it" if that makes sense....lol

Still have some material/mapping stuff to fix, and actually might rebuild it..lol.
Found some things that I could optimize better that would look better when switching LODs. Right now, I'm converting between several softwares. So I build in one program, using a plug-in there to do all of the heirarchy, ect... which AC3D / Object editor recognizes - then once in AC3D, I have to add all the data (min/max dist, ect... other flags) to the heirarchy and then combine faces / optimize.  

Long process, but not nearly as bad as going direct into ac3d and trying to do a heirarchy from scratch there...lol
