Quote - I have had troubles downloading some LWO files which appear corrupted but switched to Blender to down load them and then saved them as Obj. files.  Blender is free and although somewhat difficult to use as a modeling program, it does this well.  It also has opened and downloaded Obj. files which Poser/Wings couldn't.  You might try it.

Ugh...

I remember a problem with .lwo files, version 6, IIRC and trying to find a converter or a workflow that would spit out a .obj file.  /shiver  Nothing, would do it and finally the host for the file was good enough to get me a .obj.

There are a lot of 3D object converters out there.  I've had some good luck using this: http://web.t-online.hu/karpo/  (3D Object Converter)  It's shareware and handles a great many formats.
