I’m surprised. I am importing 1 unit in TSM = 1 unit in 3DC. I would have expected at least the meters to be right. They must have some sort of conversion factor they use when they load the models from file. It wasn’t apparent to me when looking at the file format where the conversion factor was.
When importing projects from TSM to 3DC I have observed that the imported objects are not scaled in accordance to the scale 3DC is set to for modelling. In other words, if the TSM project was built using feet and inches and then brought into 3DC set to meters, the project comes in HUGE and needs to be reduced by .3048 to get it to the correct size. If the TSM project was built in meters and imported into 3DC set to model in feet, the project comes in rather small.
If this is the way it is designed to work, I can deal with that since we only have a couple of scale options but wouldn’t it be better if the TSM project was brought into 3DC scaled correctly?
If I am shooting in the dark here, just let me know and straighten out my thinking.
