Re: SoftImage not saving 2nd UV for lightmap in obj?
Softimage supports FBX. You can even use the latest version of Crosswalk (2014?) even if you're still using an older version of Softimage itself (like 2011). Multiple UV channels should also work fine with FBX, assuming you're not on a significantly older version of Crosswalk. Years ago there was an issue with second UV… -

Re: How do i get clean normals for produced environment objects?
Some model it in zbrush, some do it in box modelling software. If lazymouse and trying to draw the details isn't working for you in zbrush it might not be the technique thats the problem.

Re: About the discontinuation of Softimage
I don't think its simply as simple has just selling Softimage itself to another party, or stripping it down. Contrary to what people think, Softimage was continually developed from it's Autodesk acquisition in 2008 to the 2015 release last year. You can go the wiki and see a full list of features and developments during… -
Re: 3Ds Max tips for working on highpoly objects

On a raw edit poly/edit mesh level you… -
