Hi all,
I have a simple architectural context model (basic massing blocks/roads etc...) which was originally an AutoCAD drawing imported into MAX. When I export this model to mxs I get a resulting filesize of approximately 1GB from a MAX file size of 5mb.
If I take the same original AutoCAD drawing and import to another application such as sketch-up and then export to MXS from there the resulting MXS is just over 5mb.
I am at a loss as to why the 3D Studio export amounts to almost 1GB of data, rendering the file unusable once in Maxwell Studio. (the same happens if I simply try to render from 3D Studio since it exports the scene before it renders it in maxwell).
Many thanks/
