What is the scale of models when they are imported to the Multiverse platform?

Tools and Asset Creation FAQ - Multiverse
ds Max: The standard coordinate system is 1 unit equals 1 millimeter. So if you make a model that is 2 meters (about 6.5 feet) tall, you will want it to be 2000 units tall in your modeling tool. Our converter will look at the system units you set up in 3ds Max and use those when converting. So if you set your system unit to "feet," then you should make your humans about 6 units tall. COLLADA exporter plugins for various modeling tools (including XSI) are listed on the COLLADA public forum.

How does the Multiverse platform handle character death, by default?

Server FAQ - Multiverse
MARS has a concept of a character's health. When it reaches 0, the character dies. At that point, by default your character plays the death animation and cannot move. Adding your specific game logic should not be too difficult if you want to have 'rez' spells or a timer that sends you to a bind point. We are working on a concept of different pools at the moment, and have not finalized the design. We're hoping it will be easy to specify new pools (e.g.

Do Multiverse models support multi-textured meshes?

Tools and Asset Creation FAQ - Multiverse
Multi-texturing enables you to layer one mesh over another, for example, to create a mesh for clothing that can then be layered over multiple body meshes. You can make different materials, and the server can assign them to the models via the display context. For more information, see the OGRE manual.

Why are your models 1/285th scale?

GHQ Models- The Best Damn Wargaming Products Since 1967
In 1967 when our founder pioneered Micro Scale gaming with the introduction of Micro Armour® he wanted something about one third the size of the models that were currently being used, and he wanted a scale that would be distinctive. The models that were being used at the time were 1/87th, and he thought that 1/285th had a unique look and sound to it. The rest is history.

Why do you produce HO Scale models before N Scale models?

www.walthers.com -- faq page
Walthers has been steadily increasing N Scale offerings over the last several years, and we plan to continue that expansion. The tooling and research to create models for complete industries (such as “The Works” steel mill series and the “Trees & Trains” lumber and paper industry series) require a tremendous capital investment. If we want to be able to continue to do projects of this type, we must produce the kits for the largest market first — HO Scale.

Is there a specific scale that I should use for my models?

Maya2DTS FAQs
You should use real-world measurements for your models. For example, the height for a standard human male might be 2 meters = 200 centimeters. Most measurements in Torque are based on meters. Changing Maya's linear working units from the default setting of centimeters to meters will make it easier to coordinate object scales in Maya and Torque.

I imported an OBJ from another application and the scale and/or offset has changed! What do I do?

User FAQ - ZBrushInfo
Whenever you import a mesh, ZBrush scales it to a specific size in ZBrush units. It also places the object's center point at the object's geometric center. This is all regardless of what scaling or positioning existed in your other app. Every import gets this treatment. But if you clone your first import, ZBrush looks at the resulting model as a special case. It no longer simply imports a new mesh and scales it as per the previous paragraph.

Are any R/C scale models available of the Silent?

AliSport
We are not aware of anyone selling plans or producing kits of a Silent scale model. The Italian magazine "Modellismo" featured two beautiful scratch-built Silent R/C aircraft. Reports are that they fly exceptionally well. See the Italian "Articles" page of the website. Both the pure sailplane and self-launch versions of the Silent are easy to build. There is no fiberglass lay-up in the traditional sense (only bonding of some pre-molded panels).

Why did the scale go up?

Medifast Frequently Asked Questions. (FAQ's)
The amount of weight you lose will fluctuate from week to week. Often the scale will be affected by things that cause you to retain fluids, such as PMS, not drinking enough water, illness, stress, too much exercise and even temperature extremes. Don't panic if the scale doesn't move for several days or even goes up. If you stay solid on your program, the scale will eventually show results.

What the heck is Hypertime? The Multiverse?

Ride the Lightning List FAQ
Until 1985, DC had a series of parallel universes that they called the Multiverse. Earth-1 was home to the Justice League and DC's current heroes.

Swimming Pool FAQs - POOLCOP
Scale is an accumulation of mineral deposits absorbed from a water stream. By the time it reaches your home, water has passed over minerals such as limestone and marble, and dissolved a form of calcium carbonate or calcite into it. This hard water is heated (kettles, geysers) or when evaporation takes place, calcite deposits layers of hard deposits in your pipes and around your fixtures.
