Strange enough this all happend after I bought me a new PC with Windows 7 Professionsl and a 64 bit OS before I installed DAZ Studio 4.6.1.17 and Lightwave 11.5.1 and Lightwave 11.6.

Why did DAZ change the software so the OBJ export functions doesn´t work properly anymore?

Solutions? Explanations? Magicians?

    AFAIK DS will still export an obj file.

    Are you unable to find the option, or does the export fail or work differently than you expect?

    ... the export fails and works differently than earlier versions of DAZ?

    How does it fail? What does it do?

    Lightwave can´t open these files any longer, before the latest DAZ update everything worked perfect!

    Does this happen with any object you export from DS< even something simple or that you've exported before? Are your export settings the same?

    Please post screenshots showing the steps, from File>Export in DS to whatever happens (or fails to happen) in LW. Your description isn't clear - are you getting errors?

    Are you able to open the converted OBJs in Accutrans3D? There, you can convert them in LWO.

    I would also suggest posting screen shots of your export settings in DAZ Studio

    As MCMXC has mentioned, AccuTrans3D can convert the OBJ to a LWO as can DeepExploration but AccuTrans3D is far cheaper ($20 USD)
