What is the ratio or factor for converting between 3ds max units and sapien units? I know they are different. Something that is 5 units high in max is like .04 in sapien. What is the exact ratio? Does anyone know?

10 max units = 1 foot
10 feet = 1 Halo world unit (same thing in Sapien)
100 max units = 1 Halo world unit

At least, I'm pretty sure of this. I've tested it with coordinates from objects and the position in Max is always right when I use this conversion.
