      This occurs in SU6 and SU7.
      When you import a 3DS model the backface UV mapping is incorrect. For instance, I got a bunch of XFrog trees. Leaf texture are mapped to a plane. On the front face it's correct, but on the back side it's incorrect scale and rotation. Import in any other program and it looks ok.
      It's a major show stopper.

          Do you need any examples? Or do you have what's needed?

            Just FYI for anyone that might come across this thread. As a workaround you can download a plugin here: http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=14684&p=111254
