I have a header file based on the 3ds.h from www.xbdev.net. I did a lot of modification to make it work in Borland Builder including adding a normizing routine. It contains code from other source and tutorials including this site. /* What we have here is a totally self contained 3DS file loader, that is easy to use and extremely powerful. Using it? <1> #include "bcb3ds.h" <2> Object1 = new C3DS; <3> Object1->Visible=true; <4> Object1->Create([FILENAME]); e.g. Object1->Create(OpenDialog1->FileName.c_str()); <5> Object1->Release(); // Tidy up when you've finished. */ DOWNLOAD -> http://www.a-n-c.net/bcb3ds.h
