Can you reduce your model into more manageable chunks?

How many poly's is your model?

3ds support is currently broken in dbpro. Some 3ds files will load, others will cause a crash, some just don't load and some take ages to load. Try converting the model to .x or .dbo and see if it works then.

You are, I also trust, actually putting a sync command in your main loop if you've included the "sync on" command somewhere, yes?
