Grab yourself a .3ds import plugin and you should be able to import anything in .3ds format with no problem.

I think i found the one i use a while back on www.highend3d.com

Hi there. Maya comes with 3ds import capabilities.(not positive 'bout 7,but i think it does) In the maya add ons/extras disk there is the plug in for 3ds support.Install the extras and when you reload maya go to the plug in manager and enable 3ds plug in. If the file is in 3ds it should work(you might have to fiddle with a few import settings).



oops, gotta read post fully, i think Flakmonkey's answed it.

A simple tut using the above
