I'm not sure if anybody here is familiar with rendering in max, but something I use often in it to quickly light a scene and get nice soft shadows is Skylight. Is there any equivalent in Maya? Or what is a easy way to achieve the same look in maya? Thanks.

in maya you dont need skylight, change your environment color (camera > environment), disable the default light (render settings > common), activate the FG ;)
you can also use the IBL (render settings > mental ray > environment), but it's not necessary
