Hello,

I just want to make sure I am on the right track since scale is extremely important for materials and SSS. I export an .obj out of DAZ Studio, and I use the export scale of 1 unit = 1 cm (DAZ scale). When I import into Octane I set the scale to Centimeters. I just want to check I am correct.

Thanks

Yes, that's the correct way. Please be aware, that everything in Octane is still meters (with the exception of the camera aperture, which is in centimeter).
