Hi, This is at least a Poser related question. I exported Victorias Hip as *.OBJ and tried to rescale it before importing it to 3DS Max 5. Unfortunately Objection Scaler (by Sandy Lodge) tells me that the first number in the *.OBJ is no valid floating point value. Objection Mover works fine. I'm using Win2000 German. Any ideas what's wrong? - TFx

Found the problem. German Windows seems to use commas instead of dots for floating point values. It seems that Objaction Scaler uses some system library. Poser and UVMapper use dot. So you have to exchange all dots by comma, rescale the object and replace the commas by dots again. Oh my, that's Windows. Finally found out that the *.obj plugin for 3DS Max is also able to rescale. So I do not need Objaction Scaler any longer. Thanks for your reply - TFx

@tintifax you replace the comma with the dot in your country-settings under your system-settings. thats what i do, its easier this way as to edit the object file manually. i have w2k german too.
