LightWave Converters

I think I might have figured out my problem. I had been using a normal directory structure - I had my scene files and object files in different folders the way LightWave likes things. When I put the objects and scenes in the same place I was able to successfully convert a scene. Other than that I don't think I did anything different.

Am I right that they need to be in the same directory, or have you guys been successful even with them separated?

Thanks again everyone!
