I think people have covered this in prior posts but you can't morph between
different poses of the same mesh because the W3D exporter (for Max and Maya
at least) stuff up the vertex ordering and changes the number of vertices.
My guess is that even though you have the "Mesh quality" set to 100% in the
exporter, the mesh still gets run though an optimisation algorithm that is
told not to optimise anything, but still manages to fiddle with the
vertices.
