    Yup. Create a 3d file in 3ds format, and use the tool that came with the SDK to convert it to a .X file. If you don't have the SDK, you're stuck just like me.

    'Course, the X file contains a lot of useless info for game programming. So if anyone knows how to load a 3ds file into a DirectX mesh, I'd be happy to know myself.

    Mind over matter. Then if it doesn't matter, you lose your mind.

    You can also use Milkshape 3D, which comes with an exporter for x files. There are various other conversion tools availible as well.
