Static Mesh resizing not scaling

[legacy-merlin371]

how can I resize a mesh without scaling it all that I could find is the DrawScale3D on the bottom right of the editior, but I need to resize it of over 60 percent and it looks bad since it's a walkway and there's more of the same beside it, anyone knows how to resize without loosing the scale?

Thanks

Without redoing it in Maya or Max, nope. You'll need to Scale it equally in all directions, that way it'll look the same, just be bigger.

Why don't you resize all of the walkway pieces?

how do I resize it in maya I didn't find any tools for import

[legacy-Krogen]

(Dunno) Even if you find a tool that will export the file to Maya you will still (probably) have to redo the UVs... Pain the the butt!

so prob the best thing I can do is resize them all

Yup. Not only will you need to resize X/Y/Z of each SMesh using the same amount(aka---1,1,1 ---> 2,2,2), but every other SMesh in the set will need to be Scaled using the same amount.

Note: You can only Export to Maya or Max if you have the full verions of them.

[Just in case] there's also Display->drawscale in the smesh properties box which let's you redo all three axes with a single value (which is useful for gross resizing).
