Is there any way to export all scenery files from Sapien to be used in creating light maps?

Definitely read that wrong, I thought you were saying run Radiosity thru Tool. I have been doing it through Sapien, is there anyway to get the scenery out of Sapien so I can just create a shadow map in Max?

Running lightmaps in tool has always made shadows for scenery for me...

Running Radiosity or is there something else you can run to get sharper shadows?

I have a whole lot of dead tree branches I want to cast sharper shadows yet radiosity can't/won't do it.

Lines and normals should be set to true. Testing their effect now, step count should be high too.
