View 3D 3DS Files Online

Use this free tool to view your 3D 3DS (3D Studio Mesh) files online without needing to install any software. Our 3DS viewer tool will generate a real-time 3D preview of your 3DS file with Pan and Zoom controls, allowing you to see your 3D model from any angle.

Our 3DS viewing tool can load most 3DS files, and we are working on improvements all the time to improve compatibility with all file formats. If you are looking to convert your 2D image files to 3D files, such as STL, then we have a 2D to 3D conversion tool here.

Description

The 3DS format has been a standard 3D format for many years. It has been the native file format for Autodesk's 3D Studio since the days of Microsoft's MS DOS. The age of the format began to show its limitations many years ago and was replaced by Autodesk when 3D Studio Max was launched.

There are, however, still many 3D model files circulating in the 3DS format, and these can be easily converted using our 3DS conversion tools. Some of the limitations of the 3DS file format include: texture names are limited to DOS 8.3 filenames; the maximum number of vertices allowed in the 3D mesh is capped at 65536; and there is no support for directional lighting.
