multiple uv maps imported to max 2011

Good day
I have this site, split it up into 6 uv map tiles, and brought it into mudbox, painted a couple of things and want to bring this back to max. How do one do that and can max do this. If anyone can point me in the right direction i would be really happy.

Could you elaborate a bit more or provide pictures, its unclear what you mean with "site" and are you talking multiple uv channels ?

if you load the fbx file saved in mudbox max will assign 6 materials with those textures...
if you need a clean solution do it with uv shifting...

One guy told me about multiple uv mapping and i really liked that. its a pity i modelled the thing, because i might had another approach on unwrapping this. Maybe have the walkways as seperate uv maps, since the most detail will be seen in there.
the attached file is just a test in the very early stages.

hi there
Just wondered, do anyone know where i can find a bunch of midevil caracters, i dont want to go and model 20 or so. Its for my midevil town kinda like assasins creed , oblivion and fable, anyone know where one can get models like that, or is it best just to bite it down and start modelling you caracters.
