    For DirectX programs, I want to know how to import .x files. I want to also make .x files. In the MS DX SDK there is a utility to convert .3ds files to .x files. What are 3ds files and how do I create them so I can import them to an application. Thank you for taking your time to read this.

    A 3ds file is an Exported 3D Mesh (Model) from 3D Studio Max, one of the niciest, but most expensive, programs there are for 3D Graphics in my oppinion.
    If I weren't insane, someone else would be. :-p

    I think it was the file format for the original 3D Studio.
