heyas; i'm not sure how lightwave works; if it makes true booleans or 'proceedural' booleans. vue makes proceedural booleans. that is, you still see both objects fully in your scene in vue, they are only subtracted/cut when you render. if you put two objects together in lightwave, and the 'boolean-ed' version of that object still has both objects' mesh, then it would not import into vue as the cut mesh. you would have to perform a vue boolean operation on the two objects. ya know? it sounds like fyg knows, and you have to do something in lightwave before you export a booleaned object, to get it to be one new object.
