how important is the 'wall fillers'?
« on: February 23, 2012, 10:59:30 »
Just wondering if these wall fillers are pretty important or can I do without them? Are they really just to fill the gaps or do they serve another purpose?

(of course, with system X you do have holes all over, and it's supposed to be normal... Still looking forward to Sir Pleamo's solution for those.)

Like Mike said, and I am sure Georginetto will agree, very usefull!!! Filling the gaps in a steck building is like placing the final pen lines on a sketch. There others of course who dont find them funtional at all and don't use them.

I think they're pretty important.For me, none of my castles or houses are considered "finished" without them.

Me too!  I hate all the System X holes and that's one of the main problems with the building system, in my opinion.

The Steck fillers aren't really functional but I think it looks incomplete without them.

I use them - the place where they are most useful to me is when I have a wall with one segment having the holes at the top filled by floor pieces and then you have open holes right next to it on the same wall. That just really bugs me unless it's supposed to be a ruin or something.

yes... they are important !!!!! the sockets from steck walls that the fillers fit to, are for putting floor parts there ,but if there are not any floors needed there you have to use these !!!!
