This is something you may have to ask to WorldViz support. The error
message you are seeing typically happens when OSG is unable to find
plugins for the source format you are trying to import/convert. I have
no idea how WorldViz ships OSG compiled with their Vizard, whether the
3ds plugin (or any plugins at all) are installed.

In the worst case you can always install regular OSG separately from
Vizard and use the osgconv tool from there - I think that the 3DS
plugin is available in the precompiled Windows binaries. If it is not,
then you can always compile OSG and the plugin yourself.
