Have a look at Nate Miller's page for a 'finished' .ase loader (which I believe MAX can export).

I'm in the middle of writing a Lightwave object loader and I have some pointers on writing loaders for simple object formats and generating texture coords.

Does anybody know how to read a 3D file format like Lightwave or 3DStudioMax in OpenGL? Are there some tutorials about that stuff? Is there something like a textfile in
which are the vertices or the colors defined
for the specified 3D file?
