John Dollus Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 move the dwg to 0,0 before importing into max. looks like the entities are too far from the origin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicolai Bongard Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Sometimes when importing geometry that is far from the origin and goes all wonky, you can move your geometry closer to origin and then apply a reset xform modifier to fix it.
