I'm not sure if Blitz3D can use .3ds (can it???)
but for the .b3d...
LoadMesh("[pathname]\[Filename].b3d")
You need to load these during the main loop? unless you have a staggering number, can't they be loaded in prior to the loop, and then just select those that you need.
Sorry - I'm just not sure what you actually want to do. Can you be a bit more specific and explain what you actually want to achieve. Maybe even post some code?
If you need to use the same mesh many times, CopyEntity or CopyMesh is the best option.
