3ds to dts

Hi!

Is there a way to convert a model from 3ds to dts without having 3D studio max? I use XSI and Blender myself, but it would be nice to be able to use all those free 3ds around for prototyping. Thanks!

I was under the assumption that 3ds is a format most other programs could import. If thats not the case, then check out Right Hemisphere

They make a program called Deep Exploration that is a fantastic file converter. They have a demo which (im pretty sure) doesnt have a time limit... only limited functionality. Still quite useful though.

I believe Matt Fairfax had some code to load 3dses directly into the engine. Maybe that would be useful?
