Amazing add-on I only have one problem: when I export a model, the 3DS file doesn't contain the textures.

You can not pack textures into a .3ds file, they are always linked. Put the textures into the same folder (or subfolder) as your .3ds file and they will be assigned to the model by import. Have a look into the manual to learn about the texture nodes setup.

Thank you for all your awesome work on creating this indispensable tool for the Blender ecosystem and also for the long term maintenance. We use this importer in the BlendeDMX ( https://extensions.blender.org/add-ons/open-stage-blender-dmx/ ) and it works really well.
