Hello, Im not exactly an Expert in OGL YET but nobody on the beginners post could give me an exact answer. I want to load a simple model from 3DS to my openGL program. I use linux and windows. 3DS is in windows while all my OGL progs are made under linux in the C language. Can someone PLEASE tell me how I can load a .3ds file into my programs. I am despairing because nobody can tell me. My e-mail is
osushkov@hotmai.com
A sample prog would be appreciated, all I want to be able to do is to load a simple .3ds file into my programs.

So if I understand you correctly, you want to load
a .3ds file in your OpenGL program? :wink:

Just do a search on “3DS” and you’ll find several
documents on the format.
