After a full windows reinstall and extremely busy last two weeks, I
don't currently have amapi and carrara installed on this computer,
so i can't check it. But if my memory serves me correct, you have a
setting for scaling imported objects in either carrara
file>preferences or in a dialog that pops up when you are importing
a3d-files into cs3. If you know that with your default carrara scene
settings you have to scale your models by factor of 4354.3445 or
whatever, you can enter it there. Or was it so, that you could set
the export prefs in amapi7... Can't remember what the correct
procedure was.
I could be badly mistaken here, so maybe someone confirm this
information?
