The 3D model (.3ds) file size is too big to import and work

[Manasa]

Hello,

 

For one of my project I want to import a .3ds image format into PVsyst to create a shading scene which is 61,297KB size. It is taking forever to import and then the software crashes. Is there any solution to this? Can someone help me in

1. Reducing the file size if possible before importing?

2. Any other go to import such a big file easily and work on it without any problem?

Thanks four kind help.
