3d Models in WPF

Question

Hi folks my Question is simple 1-How can i get a file with .3ds or .obj ... extension loaded in wpf project

2- how can i do drag and drop that 3d model with mouse .(i'm doing a 3d chess project )

Answer 1

1. Blend has support for loading an obj file and converting it to xaml. Unfortunately, there is no support for 3DS in the box - getting 3DS files requires 3rd party software such as Reader3ds.

2. You'll need to write your own hit testing, and handle this yourself.
