If there are problems with mesh loading you should report it to the bug forum. Best is if you can provide screenshots (of how it should look like) and the model for download. Also note that there were many improvements of mesh loaders in the last days, so it might already work in upcoming Irrlicht 1.4.

Strange, I'm using Milkshape v1.7.10 and I have no problems, neither with .ms3d nor .3ds nor .x files exported !!!
