Devin Johnston Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I'm importing FBX'es into Max from Revit and before I do any mapping I apply a UVW Mapping Clear modifier to the object. When I assign a UVW Map to that object and scale it appropriately it's huge, a 5' square map shows up in the display as a 61' square. The system units are set to 1 unit = 1 inch, US Standard and the model is the correct scale 1:1. I've never seen this behavior before, any ideas how I'd fix it?

Tim Fairbanks Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 This happens frequently with geometry imported from SketchUp and/or Revit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Schroeder Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Revit's native units are in feet and SketchUp likes to force centimeters on your exports. If you are inches, it makes sense given the fact that the FBX is getting "scaled" to your system units but the geometry retains its original mapping coordinates, which the reset xfrom sets back to the proper system units.
