Maya exports big models

Hi modelers,

Why i'm getting a huge model every time i export the model as .dae and import it into model editor?
I tried resizing in maya but it still looks huge.

What's wrong? thank you.

In Maya you have to change the measurement to meters.

Thank you YC, but where is that option? Is my second day with Maya.

Window > Settings/Preferences > Preferences > Settings > Working Units > Linear: meter.

It's not working

Working units set to meters:

Model still looks huge (it's a headless little man with a random texture)

Did you delete the .msh file and restart the HPL2 editor before importing?

Found it.
I wasn't using the right plug in.
