System units VS Type of 3D industry?

[Morne]

Hi all

What system units do you usually set max as? (the default is inches)

In archviz we usually set it mm (some srange reason some people set it to cm)

I purchased some character models and they were in cm

I had some demo/free Axis things, and they vary from meter to cm

So, what do YOU use?

[Da_elf]

default inches

[suurland]

mm, typically I do product viz, about the size of a car and down.

I'm using cm, because with mm you are getting into rounding error territory with large scale archviz projects.

[rivoli]

cm, which is what most architects use here anyway.

[Neilg]

mm, sometimes metres depending on scale.

cant stand feet/inches, such a ridiculous system.

[Pixelcon]

meters for me. I have scenes with scanned context models 1kmsq so anything less is dangerous.

[Da_elf]

our architects here use feet and inches hence why i never changed the default settings

[Dariusz Makowski (Dadal)]

Meters here.

[sandykoufax]

cm 'cause mm is to small and m is too big.

[Morne]

so then do you guys set your display units to match system units?

[Da_elf]

i work in feet and decimal inches

[bardo]

I do images about shops and my unit is cm.

Meters too big, mm to small.

Display unit is the same.

[Ramsay]

Meters for system units, mm for display units here

[Morne]

I'm getting very good results now with system units as meter and display units as mm
