Setting up 3dsmax units


In this tutorial you will learn how to set up your 3dsmax (any version) units. You need this because you don’t want to make an object and then discover in Trainz, that it is huge or very small, nowhere near the real scale. So follow this tutorial to find out how you can set the units in 3dsmax.
First, go to Customize and select Units Setup

When the dialog box is open, mark the unit system of your choice. This depends in what you now best. I use metric units. Then press System Unit Setup and select the unit you would like 3dsmax to work in. 1 unit in 3dsmax is…. For me is meter. You can chose whatever you like but you should know how to work with them.

You will need to this setup every time you install 3dsmax. This is a key setup in order to make content for trainz in 3dsmax.
