How to import .3DS files into Torque 3D

#1 The 3DS format is not supported by the engine. It will need to be exported to either DTS or Collada. Information on how to export to those formats can be found in the documentation.

#2 There is a resource for adding 3DS import function to TGE. Not sure where to find it at the moment but if you write your own code or know a programmer you might be able to use it as a template for adding that to T3D.
