Is there a tutorial on how to properly make a Min/Max Height Override for an object?

Hey Mr. adamular ! Not knowing exactly what kind of object you want to constrain, I am not aware of any particular tutorials related to the footprint's Min./Max height data... I always keep copies of cloned & exported 'general' items for the three different heights - the base game 'plain' windows that come in three heights, as well as the three wall mirrors from Vint. Glam. Note: the mirror objects themselves 'clip' slightly into the ceiling above. There are a few select debug rocks that are actually designed to be half (or more) underground, if that is the sort of thing that you need... If those suggestions do not meet your needs, Please give a bit of detail about what your need is. Cheers.

What I want to do is turn Velouria's floor dirt (MtS is in maintenance mode right now) into wall dirt. I exported the meshes and textures, then edited them to go on the walls. I then created a new object using "Grunged Splatcal #1" from the StrangerVille as my base. I want to look into height overrides because I can not move my new objects as freely down the wall as I want.

Ah, that helps quite a lot!
You do not necessarily need to be looking at the min/max height in the footprint, although it can help with a lot of items. Where you need to go is in Warehouse, for each Object Catalog entry, there is a checkbox for 'AdjustHeightOnWall', which is needed to be checked to allow for what you desire. Mirrors, for example, do not have that checked by default so that a Sim can always admire themselves at the expected height for the animation...
Cheers.

I would try and find the post but I think it's on MTS which, as you say, is currently under maintenence. If I am remembering correctly then plasticbox made an override for some GT climbing plants so that they could be placed lower when used against foundations. I think it involved editing the footprint. Once MTS is back up and running it may be worth checking the package out to see what was doen to get it to work.
