So, I've finally gotten PhilC's hot mesh-making tute, and I'm trying to follow it. I'm using Wings3D, for now, since I'm not confident enough in my own mad skillz to invest in a more expensive program until I get the hang of this one. My problem is, I can't get much past the first step, because my 'dress dummy' object loads TINY in Wings. Is there a free utility out there somewhere that will scale Judy(or whomever) to a usable size within Wings, and then scale her back down to Poser proportions on the other side? Phil recommends 3DExplorer, but that seems to be a TrueSpace-unique plugin. Any recommendations would be very much appreciated!! Thank you!

Try Objaction Scaler. Also, be sure to get Mover, as it handles pcf encoded obj's- a must for some figures. -Starkdog

For Wings3D you don't need a scaler. If you look at the import function above you can see a small square highlited

If you click on it you will get the scale window. For Poser .obj import with 20 and export with 0.05 works fine
