Vray Proxies and Scale Problem

[fadi3d]

Hi Guys,

Recently i noticed that importing Vray proxies (Chairs and Tables in a Restaurant) when rendered are bigger than when i exported them.does any of you know about this issue or has any info that could explain why ?

thank you in advance and take care.

Its probably some type of scaling issue when the proxy is created or perhaps a mismatch in unit setup.

 

Did you create the proxys yourself?

Happens all the time in Lebanon, clients don't know what scale to use and they send files that are misscale. If you want wecan meet one day and I can show you some ways to keep the scale correct in between Autocad and Max.

Dear Friends,

thank u all for ur answers the thing is i am sure my scale is wright and i do my proxies myself and they are file dependent (which is not ideal i know ) my table height was 76 cm with appropriate chairs i exported to Vray proxies and deleted the original. then i created a vray proxie and instanced it multiple times untill when i rendered i discovered i had to scale it down by 85% which is weird so what happened is what i'm trying to find out.

Ihab i would like us to meet i admire ur work (you know where i am columbia center 7th floor )

take care guys and thanks again
