Hmm... I just did both and I had no problems...
When you import the .3DS are you using "Import 3ds" or "import 3ds ground mesh"? I did the former.
If you want to export your 3ds data to a mesh and importing the 3ds gasve you more than one object, make sure to group them all first and then export the grouped object.
Make sure that your textures are all present. Maybe you had a missing texture?

Edit: I just did it again with a corridor with an unassigned texture and still had no problems.
