.atm files...

ok.. i figured out all the .3ds - .x - .atm and all that good stuff... now, can anyone help me out.. anyone have any good ideas on what i should use to scale this stuff... mainly any .wrl files i am using.. they are too small, when i try to scale them in the model converter supplied on the a-tractor website, it scales it, and moves it far far away from the center point

an easy scale to go by would be the road. most vehicles in life would be less then half the width of a small screet, which is basicly what the "lay path" roads appear to be.

i've always used deep explorationm to scale the .x models before converting them to .atm. tends to take a while though. scale the .x, convert it, see it on an island, rescale the .x, convert it, see it on the island. repeat a few more times.
