3) Go to GR2 Editor, load GR2 file I want to work with, go to the mesh and select Import:
a) non-strict
b) everything is selected, inlcuding AO data.
4) Import.
This is my general walk through for import. Try this, see what happens.

This is exactly the method I have used so far, except for inverting Z & Y (which anyway, under your suggestion I have tried yesterday, but without results) and for importing the AO map which, in the case of the balloon, I have skipped since its AO texture is overlayed to the diffuse texture. Nonetheless the lighthouse got a separate AO map and, while I was working on it, I imported both the diffuse and the AO models I had previously created. Result: both maps were messed up along their borders
It must be some kind of obj file formatting which is required by TDW's tool and not supported by wings
