Yes. Use the blend file in the download as your scale for your models. The file will have two boxes assembled to the scale of a Fpsc room segment. Meaning that when you scale your models, using this file will let you know the size in Fpsc after export.

Try scaling the object itself.

Use the hotkey S in object mode and then scale it.

When you scale you'll see "X Y Z" in the bottom bar of the view window with their respective values.

One thing you could also do is press "S" and then "X" to scale on the X axis, then "S" and then "Y" for the Y axis and "S" and then "Z" for scaling on the Z axis. And if you want to be more in-depth... type in "S+X+<num>" where <num> is the scale value. That would scale X, and you can do that with Y and Z too.

Yes, just edit the entity's fpe file. The part that says " scale = ".

If you want tutorials on blender to fpsc, then I would suggest you start here: Gamer X Blender Tutorials

Quote: "Well that work but where can i find an exact size?
"

Scale according to how you want it in fpsc using the room segment I provided. Press "S" to scale and on the number pad press "50" as fpsc is 50 times the scale of blender. If that is not easy enough, press "N" to bring up the models properties and you can do the scale and location by typing in the values unde "Scale" and "Loc".

Good Luck with the tutorials and learning blender.

with your object selected in object mode press n it will bring up an transform panel which shows exact location, rotation, scale data. you can edit these values directly in this panel.

edit: oops I guess star already mentioned it, I missed it reading his post the first time!


you can also lock the proportion so that all dimensions scale equally when any of them are changed

Well thank you all for repling and I was just going to use
to test to size on blender my image is

X:160.200
Y:160.500
Z:80.020

btw i made this image bigger so it is not small and this is somewhere, where i want it so thoughs above are the BLENDER scale sizes and i put this in my while loop



and if you view the image that is what i got.

why is the object width "-"(negitave)?
