clipka , Thank you very much for the reply and sorry for not answering sooner.

How do I know if the model's origin is where?

I center the model's origin in max from Affect Pivot Only / Center To Object
then move it to 0.0.0 in xyz world position then export it as 3ds file for
import into PoseRay.

Where in Poseray can I see model's origins in xyz?

for example in this inc file exported from poseray we see

//Bounding Box....... from x,y,z=(-40.49511,-19.33101,-27.46092)
//                      to x,y,z=(-2.163608,19.76925,11.64881)
//                 size dx,dy,dz=(38.3315,39.10027,39.10973)
//                  center x,y,z=(-21.32936,0.219121,-7.906058)
//                       diagonal 67.28823

how come it says center x,y,z=(-21.32936 ....

I made it 100 units (cm) long in max but it says -21.32936 for x axis
Why is that?

any help would be appreciated, thanks again.
