The answer is "very simple":

Open your exported DXF as a text (.txt). Do the same with one saved and exported from Metasequioal.

You see that the DFX nothing more then enummeration of points and their attached layers.

If you compare both you notice a slight difference.

* Strpix needs its layers to be named TEXTURE_XXXX_Y_Z while Metasquoial names them
Obj1
62
1.

Also the headers are different.
Using Word I replace the "Obj1 62 1" with "TEXTURE_1026_0_0 " and change the headers. Because objects can easily have 200 of those tags you must use "search and replace". Search for "obj1^p62^p1" (^p = ENTER in search functions) and replace it with "TEXTURE_1026_0_0 ", fix the headers (copy them from the original the don't change after editing).

Yes I have had on an occasion the same error. You really have to pay attention to spacebars and enters.

I solved it by re-exporting it again from Metaseq. And redo the changes.

It works.
