Thanks for pointing that out Rob - I had forgotten about that tool :) I have seen my fair share of bad models from Turbosquid too, but her ewe are talking about 4 different models from different modelers - the common denominator is I can see in the obj file (in Wordpad) that it was created with DeepExloration, and when I compare a file from Turbosquid with the same imported to and from Maya as obj, the Maya one has 6 decimals while the Turbosquid one has 5. I don't know if this can throw off the Soft importer, but stranger things have occured.
