It should be quite possible to convert 3ds Max graphics (.3ds) to Autodesk Kaydara format (.fbx). You have several possible options for this, but one of the most convenient one would be to download the free Autodesk FBX Converter that allows 3ds to fbx conversion among others. But you can find plenty of other 3D modeling tools / converters that should be also viable choices for this 3d model conversion.

The tables with software actions are a good pointer for what a certain program does with various file types and often may give users a good hint how to perform certain file conversion, for example the above-mentioned 3ds to fbx. However, it is not perfect and sometimes can show results which are not really usable because of how certain programs work with files and the possible conversion is thus actually not possible at all.
