Title: units for ship models in MAX
Post by: MyName on August 20, 2008, 11:38:24 pm

Im trying my hand at making some ships for FS with MAX 7, however I cannot find any information on the scale to use.

Should I model the ships in meters or one of the other units, which is best for use with the POF exporter :confused:

:welcomesilver:

Freespace uses meters.

Also note that there is a build of PCS2 around which will open collada files, if they are set up correctly (this feature isn't fully finished though), avoiding some of the flaws with the Max exporter.
