Im trying to import a 3ds file and wings just hangs - I go to task manager and it says not responding. I wait a few minutes and nothing-I have to quit wings. Is there a specific way to import 3ds files? Guides and help?
Thanks-

Could be caused by many things.

The model could be too high polygon for you accelerator or it's drivers could need an update,

The format could be corrupted or unreadable.

Personally,I've had more problems with .3ds files than other formats such as .obj or .dxf so one good suggestion would be to convert from .3ds to a format which wings will accept better.
