Hey JadeFender, i'm going to take a shot and say nothing changes when using alternate tunings as regards scales.  Since chords are derived from scales, the scales remain the same. Chords, on the other hand, will be different in a couple of ways, though they'll still use the same notes from their respective scales.
Hope this helps.
