Horse Ranch Fencing Kit:

Collisions are off by default - you can enable them in Giants Editor if required

Kit contains a representation of PVC or Vinyl or plastic fencing available today.

As it represents plastic or vinyl I have purposely textured this a bright white.

Due to its construction, it is primarily sold for fencing horse paddocks, it is designed to break away if a horse bolts through it minimising damage to the horse(s). Some brands can also have the rails reinforced internally with aluminium/aluminum.

It is also sold for use around a farm house or used to make a farm entry statement and farm driveways.

It is not suitable for cows or even sheep, it is too lightweight even if reinforced.


Kit contains:

1 x 4.8 metre or ~16 feet End Panel.

1 x 4.8 metre or ~16 feet Middle Panel.

2 x 2.4 metre or ~8 feet gates in left and right.

1 x 4.8 metre or ~16 feet Double gates.

The posts have been made with an extra 300mm or 1 foot on the bottom to allow for uneven ground.

The fence Panels have separate posts and rail panel so you can make shorter panels by removing posts, scaling the rail panel in the z direction and rotating the rails to allow for undulations in the geography. The posts being separate also allow you to adjust their height uneven ground.

All items have the pivot point at one end for ease of placing, except the Double Gates, which overall have a center pivot, but each gate has an end pivot allowing you to pose the gates other than closed.

If fencing a paddock, start in a corner with an End Panel, then add Middle Panels duplicating [CTRL D] and moving as necessary until desired.

While the Panels are multipart, the Gates are one-piece

The Single Gates are built to place in an opening with Fence Posts on each side at 2.4m centres/centers. There are left and right Gates because the bracing is on one side and oriented, you cannot flip a Gate and have the bracing remain symetrical. 

The Double Gates are built to place in an opening with Fence Posts on each side at 4.8m centres/centers.

I have made the mod shiny and bright white to reflect new fencing.

To change the colour/color simply make a new texture and either name it as the existing, or edit each i3d to the same as your new texture.

Copy the folder containing the i3d's and textures files to your map folder and add to map using Giants Editor as usual.

The image accompanying this archive shows a Farm entry statement and driveway showing how it can be rotated and scaled, placing this in your map is quite easy if somewhat tedious. Making a transform group for long runs of fencing will allow easy duplication.
