It seems that I have made an assumption about the ordering of the chunks in the
3ds file that not all 3ds models follow, which makes Wolframs models crash
the loader - the texture coords get defined after the ssgVtxTable, so I'm
copying from a NULL-pointer :-(

Unfortunately, this will take some effort to reorganize, so I'm not really sure
when I get it ready (I just have one hour or two to work on it each day), but
hopefully within a week. That might be too late for the 1.2 release, though.

Paolo Leoncini has also made some modifications to the loader that I think
should be included - at least some improvement over the current loader (better
texture support). Perhaps Paolo could send the files directly to Steve for
incorporation?
