Re: 3D view not showing up
Open the module in the module editor (from PCBnew) and check that the 3D settings are correct, (module properties) they should point to the .wrl file. The 3d shapes for the standard parts live in

Re: MDC File
It's a file that is created when the library is edited and saved. Rub PCBnew, open the module editor, select the required lib, then open any module within that lib then save. What I suspect is going
