3ds

Is there any way to import 3ds files into Blender?

Do a search… I’m sure there’s an importer.

check the python forum

I believe it is under the scripts window already… most import and export scripts are.

EDIT: nope, not a default script

Methinks I recall reading that it is broken for modern versions of Blender, and so is not currently distributed with.

Checkout my site- I have a fork of the 3ds imporer that should work well.
if it dosent you can bug me.

Need a bit more info if you would.

What is it you’re trying to import? A simple static mesh or an animated object? What app are you using to create the original 3DS file? IS the object UVWmapped? What?..
