Game Scale?

  OMG, I should have finished high school    

Or maybe that computer class in college

Scaling is not normally done, scaling in graphics is only to change the size of objects relative to each other.

I understand that object scaling only changes them relative to other objects, but say I made my cube in 'Blender' and according to blenders coordinate units it was 10,10,10. In game, then, if I placed the cube next to a tree, it should be shorter than the tree barring that the is taller than 10 feet, correct?

Jugs I dont think it is the lack of an education  thats the problem here...I finished hs and I still have no clue  what thye are talking about,  but  all those  paint chips I ate as a kid could be a factor(I liked  the  blue paint it tasted like blueberries  and less burney)

As I have said for the third time, Aces High basic unit is feet. Yes it would be smaller then the tree. So why are you interested with the basic units?

Was considering to try and make a static model to be imported into an off line arena and wanted it to appear in the same scale as existing objects, if possible. I looked over the ac3d format and I guess the rotation matrix specified could be used to 'scale' ie...

*rot 2.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 2.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 2.0 would double the size....

I haven't studied the available AH tools as well as I should, so sorry if this doesn't make any sense, ie not possible.

I'm going to guess that maybe he's trying to get an idea or representation of what AH "thinks" is a foot?

Scale is 1 to 1. Hitech said a foot is a foot. 

I think that when Ardy figures out his actual question he'll also have the answer.

Modeling tools don't operate in 'feet' they operate in generic arbitrary units on an XYZ axis. So the questions was how do those units relate to the game, ie is one unit a foot, or a mile, etc...

HTC said it was foot.

yea right along with asking a question that really doesnt matter, what is he going to do with this information?
I thought it was something silly you can calm down a bit....thanks.

Thanks. I got that when Easyscor answered you. I was responding to Mk-84.
