Does anyone know how to convert studs to metres? |

Mathematically the conversion is 1 stud = 5 cm so 20 studs = 1 metre. |

this thread is gunna start an argument (i say this as a joke because i've seen people get into long arguments over this) |
|

I thought it would be like 7 studs = 1m

As far as ROBLOX is concerned 20 studs = meter as far as gravity is concerned.
If you compare a ROBLOXian to a human;
An adult human averages about 5'9".
A ROBLOXian is just over 5 studs tall (the HeadMesh is 1.25,1.25,1.25).
So a very rough calculation of 1 stud = just over 1 foot or about 30 cm. |

I think 3.3 studs is about a meter |

one 4x4x4x4 part is 1 meter
1x1x1x1 part is 1 studs |

A human is usually a little below 2 meters, so lets say 1.5 M for simplicity. A humanoid rig on the other hand is usually 5 studs, soooooo ------> 5 studs = 1.5 m (or) ((5/3) * 2)studs = 3.333333(...)studs = 1 m.
GOOD LUCK WITH THIS INFO! |

I tried recreating my house with the conversation of 1stud = 5cm and everything was WAY TOO BIG. |

Because roblox isn't "scale accurate" lol. |

Roblox isn't up to scale with building. The camera uses field of view, which decides at what size you see things. |

Check the texture for a stud. Find the size for each stud. Convert that into meters by multiplying it by 100 if the texture size is in cm. That technically is the size of a meter. However, if you want the game to be proportionate to the real world then find the depth of the characters leg. In real life the average foot size is 26cm. A meter is 100 cm. That means a foot is a quater of a meter. In this case the foot is around 1 stud thick. Multiply it by four and you get a meter. |

Another thing to consider is that, proportion wise, ROBLOXIANS are wider than human beans.
We're all beans.
It's really weird to build accurately to human proportions so I suggest you to give everything a cartoon-ish style. |

so a stud is 5 centimeters, and a real-life ROBLOXian (that is 5 studs tall) would be 25 centimeters, about 10 inches tal |

Alright, I was just wondering how accurate i could make a gun's range and speed. |

Well if you put it that way try to recreate the bullet size to metre ratio on roblox to bullet size to stud ratio for accurate results. |
|
|
Yeah, I just tried and it made the thing Over powered |

Try playing around with the settings and you'll eventually get you're answer.Also roblox gravity is 196.2studs/sec while that of our world is 9.8m/s so if you want them to be relative then you gotta use 1 stud = 5 cm.
Gonna leave this here so you can check it for yourself-http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Gravity |
