I would not bother with .3ds files.  It's an old format and is 
not useful for much.

What I did was start with the "ascii exporter plugin", the source for which
is in the MAX sdk.  It is incredibly easy to start with this plugin and
modify it to output whatever file format you want.  Or, you could just
parse the ascii output that this plugin provides.

Look in maxsdk/samples/impexp/asciiexp.
