Okay, so I have a model of a street built, with buildings, signs, roads, sidewalks... ect... built in 3ds max, and when i tried to import it into a different program for simulation use, none of the textures came in. (.3ds file format). When contacted, the company told us that exporting from ac3d might work, so i just downloaded and imported a single building on the street into the program using .3ds format once again, and cant seem to get textures to show up here either. I used bitmaps using jpegs for the most part to make the buildings, and those images are mapped onto my buildings in certain places, and there's usually more than 1 material used per building. Is there any way i can do this without having to individually go through and texture each object again? Thanks in advance.

In addition, is there any way to import a .mtl? are there any converters or anything that you know of? its a pretty detailed model, so reapplying textures would be incredibly time consuming. Thanks.
