There is a limitation of OBJ only supporting 1 of each type of sample cluster property per mesh. But in the case of the Softimage OBJ exporter, I'd call it a design flaw as the user should be able to specify which of the existing sample cluster properties should go out the door. For example, an object with 2 texture projections.

User normals and uv's appear to come out of max/maya properly no?

A sample cluster property is any of type: Texture UVs, User Normal, or Vertex Color. In our experience the OBJ exporter chooses and exports only the most recently created sample cluster on the object.

My issues so far: - UVs are not optimized (not welded) - If there is a user normal cluster UV data is not exported Cheers Szabolcs ___ This message contains confidential information and is intended only for the individual named.
