We get chair models from a manufacturer. When I load up the model, the chair is huge… like 50 feet wide. So I scale it down so it’s maybe 26" wide, which is what it is in real life. Then I create a proxy, then right click my prox and select Save As… (so I can import my proxy as an SKP with materials already assigned). When I try to save, I get "The selected component has a non-default scale. Would you like to save the component using this scale. So I say yes, and then head to my environment rendering.
When I import my proxy SKP, it looks great. Size is perfect. I can sit it near a desk for my scene and all is good. But as soon as I hit Render, in the VFB, the chair renders huge, even though it isn’t huge in my Sketchup window.
Has to be a step I’m missing, right? How can I keep my new scale as the right one for placement and for rendering?
