Anyone know how to specificaly reconfigure the 3dsmax's grid so that it is the same as Valve Hammer Editor's units (specificaly unitsx8). I know how to configure the grid, but not how to make it match valve.
3dsmax Grid: Reconfigure to Valve Hammer Editor

Doesn't mean the base dimensions shouldn't fit on a nice grid or have a reasonably placed origin. Especially given HL2's poor editor implementation of models, you need all the alignment help you can get

Alltho max mess up the size when exporting slightly, the units aren't precise.
Here we have a snap option when exporting. The exporter makes the model slightly bigger, and then it has a snap option, on how large distances it should snap back to get the real size.

It's still a pain in the arse to position models

Drag the model into place using the same procedure as resizing a brush. It will move the model in smaller increments, which works pretty well.

Peris, how come every model be off by 0.1 unit or something?
Make a wall 256 x 256 in max, and then try and fit it in hammer, you will see glitches I'm pretty sure.
Atleast that's what always happens when I export, and why they made our exporter with that snap-option.

in max 7?
Strange, I have read about it happening, here at work it's fucked and my max at home too.
