Weld all of your vertices!. Sins doesnt like unwelded joints. The smoothing in sins is done through "tangents" (a proprietary XSI thing).

Make sure your textures are hooked up correctly.

Make sure there are no unused materials. XSI likes to create more than one material when importing a 3rd party mesh like from 3dsmax. Delete all materials BUT the ones you are actually using (with textures hooked).

Freeze your objects often. freeze the mesh as well. it will save a ton of headache.

When you export to dotxsi make sure that NOTHING is selected on the mesh. otherwise you will get a guaranteed error when you import.
