Yes, AutoDesk 3DS Max is a very expensive program. It ranges from about $3000 to $4000 for the initial software if you buy it directly from AutoDesk. However, it is very easy to obtain a free trial version of this software. Also, I am sure that somebody offers a freeware software that will simply convert .3ds files to .ase or .a2c formats. I would recommend searching for a software that can simply convert .3ds files to .ase. This is most likely a much easier software to find considering the fact that Alice is not yet as popular as 3DS Max, therefore, finding a software that converts .3ds files directly to .a2c may be more difficult to find.
