Exporting and importing are no exact science. If your exporting from maya to maya then leave it as a ma or mb file. Obj files are not native to maya but are supported. publicFunction (Chris) - Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I don't know how to export as an .ma or .mb file that hasn't been covered in any of my classes its always been .obj and when I looked at the options ma and mb were not in the list
