I guess it's full name is AutoDesk 3DS Max right? Well, you could look over this modding tools in the list but as far as I know, it's not free: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/warcraft-editing-tools-277/complete-list-modding-tools-212411/

But you could also go searching in the net for a free one such as: http://www.autodesk.com/products/autodesk-3ds-max/free-trial# - Don't know if this is the same with the paid one though.

Anyway, this does not fit in the WEHZ in any ways. I'll move it in the Tools sections if you don't mind.

Art Tools is not open source, it's Blizzard's property.

If you want something more updated (Art Tools is for 3ds Max 4 and 5) and open source, you can check BlinkBoy's NeoDex.

If your purpose is to know how the MDX format works, you can check the specifications here (and if you are really brave, you can check out the source of the model viewer, but be warned, there are nearly no comments).
