Actually it uses what are called Generic Units in Gmax:
index.php?t=getfile&id=4400&private=0
(any other measurement setting will not coordinate right with level editor's system.

If you open some of the .gmax files from westwood FTP, like the SP buildings, they are all metric.

You'll notice the m next to all of the measurement boxes.

That's for gmax.

LE uses crashes for measurement units.

Level editor uses generic units, so for making cinematics, or positing stuff, generic units are a must.

Can't be, otherwise my cinematics would never match up as I make them all in RenX.
