I’m also looking for that, so far, no success. I’ll tell you what i know.
There is a program(may be bunch of files) called 3DS loader. I don’t know how to use it. I don’t know whether it should used like a function call or it gives the idea of how to decode the junks from 3ds file. Check this link for more info http://www.wotsit.org/search.asp?s=3d
I found this link from a posting with similar topic but not much info in that posting.
Hope this will help you.
if you got an idea of how it works or how to use it, please let me know
