As of 2012-Nov-16, Autodesk released PU06 (Product Update 06) for 3ds Max2013
This update is supposed to include fixes for the 3ds Exporter/Importer problems

Thus i put my recompiles to rest and recommend to install PU06 instead
See the download links below ( valid at 17.Nov 2012)

Thanks for your interest
