Maxwell Render | Official public forum

Hi there,
Last night I was messing around with a scene in Studio when I noticed that things I exported from SketchUp into MXS and imported into Studio came in at a scale of 0.025 XYZ? the exact same model when exported as .OBJ and then imported that way has a scale of 1.0 XYZ. Is there a reason the Maxwell plug-in is exporting things scaled so small? I don't have any components or groups in my SketchUp file, it's just a single model object.

It's not exporting them small; if you check their size against the grid in the viewport, you should find that it is exporting them the same size as they are in SketchUp. The actual mesh geometry is exported at SketchUp's native unit size, which is inches; the scale factor you see there converts them to Maxwell's native scale, which is meters.

I just discovered that my OBJ models got exported with model Units rather than Inches so that probably didn't help. Oops.
I'll get back to you if I find things don't fit together still once I do it correctly on my end!

Thanks for the great plug-in!
