Well, i managed for modifcy 3D models good with the Kimera program (well, i can change them but look horrible because my skill xD). But if i try change the colour it look totally bad... Dunno what is the correct name in English. Better a picture i guess ^^

Thanks for all.

Looks like Kimera can't set the shade mode properly (Modified version is flat shaded, original is smooth)
Very technical information follows;
After the polygon data in the .p file follows a section of 100-byte sized chunks, at offsets 8 and 12 you have two dwords that enable/disable all sorts of effects, among those smooth shading. If this information is missing or zero it will (apparently) revert to flat shading.
If Borde is still around I could help him implement some of these effects in Kimera

from what i can tell borde is a bit busy with school work and other commitments i have a copy of the source if that would help, i doubt he would mind if you squashed a couple of bugs solong as you credit him for the majority of the work.

Well, atleast i know now the technical name of that effect: shade :P. Is good know something new hehe.
So Kimera dont "know" that information, pity ^^.
Thanks for the info Aali. And thanks to Zack Fair about Borde information ^^.

I could take a look at it :-)
