wagurto, also adjust the scene scale ratio in mawwells system dialog. Your scene uses inches as system unit, but you left the conversion for maxwell at the default 0.01 which means it thinks there are 100 inches to 1 meter (default setting assumes you are using centimeters as your system unit). The correct setting if you use inches as your 3Dmax system units is: 0.024 so the text underneath it reads: 41.666 MAX units equal 1 meter.
It is very important you always check if your conversion number is correct, otherwise your lighting will look weird.
