The
3DS File Format
The 3DS file
format is the native file format of 3D Studio. 3D Studio has now been
replaced by 3ds Max whose native file format has a .max file extension.
However, 3ds Max is still able to read and write .3ds files. 3ds Max is
one of the most widely-used off the shelf 3D animation programs. It has
strong modeling capabilities, a flexible plug-in architecture and a long
heritage on the Microsoft Windows platform. It is mostly used by video
game developers, TV commercial studios and architectural visualization
studios. It is also used for movie effects and movie pre-visualization.
