In my experience the meshes usually look good again (at that distance)
after renormalizing the envelope weights. Did you try that already?

this threshold, but I must say Softimage does not like stuff too far away!

*Subject:* Scene scale effecting bumpmaps
Hi All,
I have a scene that came from Max, the scale is pretty big, ie I have
an object 1500 units away from the origin (so not that big).
But I'm having real problems with bumpmaps being generated on that
object (using cell scalar nodes). Everything was fine, then I added an
icosohedron scaled to surround everything, and my bumpmaps have gone
very strange. I've tried freezing scale, different types of textures
for the bump input, but it all ends up going weird.
Is there anything obvious about scene size (distance from origin) and
bumpmaps I need to know?
Thanks
Chris
