I'm dealing with this again on a new project and it appears that V8i is not able to see the correct coordinates of a 3mx file. I have the reality model created with the correct state place coordinates which I verified with a control point in Context Capture viewer, but when attached as a reference in V8i it always attaches like its in meters. If I manually scale it by 1:3.280833 to get it to Survey Feet then it shifts to the correct position and size. CONNECT edition doesn't have this problem and shows the model at the the correct location without any reprojection or scaling. Unfortunately we are not ready to deploy CONNECT edition to our users at this time. Also I found that the error message I was seeing in the message center has no bearing on this issue. That message was due to having a Bing map attached as a raster which does project to the correct location and underlays my reality model very well after I scale it down. If anyone knows of a fix for this that would be great, but I'm guessing it's just a limitation of V8i and there may never be a fix for this other than moving on to CONNECT edition.
