I was fiddling around in paperspace (trying to get our company to utilize) and now when I add dimensions to model space geometry, it is ignoring the dimscale settings. It appears to be using a "dimstyle name $0" style override. Is this a result of me adding dimensions to paperspace? Did it automatically make these changes? I want the model space dimensions back for now. Any ideas?

The $ signifies a "child" style - that is where you have made changes that relate to only one type of dimension rather than all types of dimension. Maybe you changed something in that Dimstyle for only linear dimensions, such as annotation scale-(just an example.)
Understand that - how would I delete this "child" style if it exists?
Here's a thread with a solution: http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/Visual-LISP-AutoLISP-and-General/delete-child-dimstyle/td-p/2431674
Hello,
For the problem of dimscale settings, have you already tried AMSCAREA where you can force the "text scaling" in a defined area ?
Hope that can help
Best regards
