Changing size

butter34 · Post by **butter34** » Fri Apr 28, 2006 2:36 pm

My question is. Is it possible to change the size of a model. For instance take a 500 by 500 by 250 size object or level and make it bigger.

In what?
3DS Max?
Without recompiling it?

Please explain what you want to do a little more clearly.

Ok I want to take a model of something that i made and make it bigger using 3ds max 8. Um I also dont no why you would need to recompile but I just want to expand the size of the model.

you would still need to recompile it.
Someone could make a program that opens gbxmodels and multiplies every coordinate by X where X is a value you enter.
That would resize things...

Just use the uniform scale tool.
