Good news, I meant to post this a few days ago last weekend Tim Knip added 3DS parsing support to Papervision3D. Here is the thread with the quick howto.

Thread in nabble

Added a simple 3DS parser to the Great White trunk.
=> org.papervision3d.objects.parsers.Max3DS

…USAGE:

 
// where to find textures
var textureDir:String = "./images/";  // use a trailing slash!
 
// optional materialsList
var materials:MaterialsList = new MaterialsList();
 
// the 3DS file
var fileName:String = "[path-to-3ds-file]";
 
// load it!
_3ds.load(fileName, materials, textureDir);
 
// add to scene
scene.addChild(_3ds);

Also, one other golden nugget is Den Ivanov’s newest demo with Papervision portals! This is a very smooth demo, be sure to enter into the portals to see the seasons change.

Also here is a non papervision 3ds parser.
