    I'm having trouble with the conversion or importing of 3DS objects and 3Dmax objects into Lightwave. Is it something to do with the custom rotation or some kind of plug-in i'm missing?

    You didn't really say what the problem was exactly.

    There's some info in the forum FAQ about conversions. Check that out. Other than that there is no gurantee how things will import. MAX does not import into anything directly. As far as I know you may need a plugin to import 3DS.

    Lightwave imports .3ds without any special plugins, though many times the mesh can be messed up. Lightwave does not import .max files.
