Boris,
No. Since Sun is releasing code that will allow saving scenes in a
"native" format (they have support for both file access and URL access)
we have decided not to pursue adding URL support to our loader. We
consider this loader a way to convert from 3DS to Java 3D. And even
though it is far faster than most other loaders using Sun's code will
result in even faster loading. So our recommendation is to model in
Max, generate your 3DS file, user our loader to get it into Java 3D and
then use Sun's code to save it "native". (then use Sun's code to load it
however you wish).
