I've released version 2.20 of our 3DS loader. You can get it at: http://www.mnstarfire.com/download/inspector3ds.html
This adds three features: 1) Improved file buffering - speeds up loading models greatly! 2) Ability to turn off loading textures. 3) Permanent texture cache - textures are loaded only once even if used repeatedly. (much faster model loading). Overall in Pernica we've seen improvements in loading times as much as four times faster than the previous version. - John Wright Starfire Research =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff JAVA3D-INTEREST".
