I don't think it's max issue as much as it is an direct x converter issue when using the skin modifier...

when using physique modifier I have no problems...

if you dont mind spending money, buy ultimate unwrap3d, it has a plugin that import/export max9 into it flawlessly. From uu3d, you can export to numerous format, including .x of cus.

For now the problem is solved, using physique and having the matrix box checked not the position scale and rotation seems to work.
