Quote - Don't bother to export in lwo.. just load the original obj they provided into lightwave.

Just make sure you don;t accidentally write over it, and remember that you MUST apply a map to all materials in order for lightwave to retain the UV info when you export the obj back out.

 

Thanks for this.

And if I want to substitute the modified version in the old object hierarchy? What should I do? I don't want to overwrite the original
