OgreMax Scene Exporter for 3DS Max - Global Settings Dialog

Global Settings Dialog

The global settings dialog contains settings that are active for all scenes.

Note: * indicates a setting that is applied to new scenes only once, taking effect when the OgreMax scene settings are accessed, such as when the Scene Settings Dialog is opened or an OgreMax scene is exported.

### Scene Defaults

- Up Axis* - The scene up axis, which can differ from the standard 3DS Max up axis.
- Scale* - A scaling value used to convert 3DS Max generic units to a custom unit. Possible settings:
  - active - The unit type currently in use within 3DS Max. For example, if 3DS Max is configured to use meters, then 1 meter in 3DS Max will translate to 1 unit in the output scene.
  - meters - Units are converted to meters.
  - kilometers - Units are converted to kilometers.
  - feet - Units are converted to feet.
  - miles - Units are converted to miles.
- Divided By* - Divides the scale setting. For example, if meters is selected and divide by is 10, the scale used when exported the scene will be one-tenth of a meter.

### Animation Defaults

- Skeleton Animation Sampling - The default rate or time interval used to sample the skeleton's animation. If 'None' is specified, a default sample rate will be used.
- Vertex Animation Sampling - The default rate or time interval used to sample the mesh's animation. If 'None' is specified, a default sample rate will be used.
- Node Animation Sampling - The default rate or time interval used to sample the node's animation.
