The description does not help much as Blitz3D has its own loaders: 3DS: Only a single texture and UV unwrap + multiple meshes which can change their position. No bones, no multitexturing, no multiple UV X: multitexturing but only a single channel of UV. Bones can be in, but bone based animation is not supported. Shininess is loaded from it I think as well as vertex colors. Blitz3D does only support the DX7 X format, not the DX9 one! b3D: bone based animation with vertex weight, 2 channels of UV, multitexturing, can store the EntityFX, TextureBlend etc settings
