Blender Importing .OBJ from Maya Incorrectly?

Dinosoarex

When I export my model from Maya as a .OBJ and import it into Blender, it as a lot a few holes and double the poly count.  Is there a way to fix this?  I also tried to export the file as a .FBX, but the result was the same.

(I want to buy Maya LT to model, but it doesn't support SMD import/export plugins so I'm trying to work around this issue since Blender is compatible with SMD)

Wild guess, but might have something to do with Mayas double-vert/edge/face issue? Have you tried running a mesh cleanup before exporting?

fuzzzzzz

Mesa smd import is working for mayaLt, not the export

That fixed it.  New to Maya, so I never knew that tool existed.  Thank you so much
