yea,it creases according to the smooth groups i setup in 3dsmax..no idea about blender..its a basic function though so i'm sure it does it...google blender smooth groups?

i find the crease dial too restrictive because it only does it by groups(body or prop)...some of my models have a half dozen different smooth groups ,none of which are tied to the material or group.so its better for me just to embed that info in the obj

man,all these groups are getting confusing :
