I bought 3d Canvas Pro and when I import .x meshes fron FPS Creator the models end up being huge in the editor. I have problems with scale when working in other programs also. Is FPS Creator just in a larger format. You guys who make cool meshes and import them into FPS Creator please give me a hint.

FPSC meshes are huge. I don't know how 3d Canvas Pro handles real-world scales, but in Amapi 3D I set the native units to numeric inches, build the model to the correct size, then multiply the dimensions by 100.

Your best bet is to import one of the basic floor meshes and see how big your modelling app reckons it is. Amapi 3D reckoned it was 833'4" square, or in other words 10,000". The real-world size of a FPSC unit is apparently 100", hence the 100x multiplier.

Hope this helps.

Cheers
