These oval parts should probably have one smoothing group, for now they look a bit weird. And this gold or silver effect was used in OMs AFAIR, it's just a material with cubemap, normal map and no diffuse. Other than that, it looks pretty cool.

Judith, all the models ARE smoothed properly already. It's easy to see by re-covering any models with another texture. No idea, why this bug happens with "golden" effect.

I remember I was making a set of necklaces and jewelery a few months back and didn't have such problems. I'll try to look into that later.

NEW MATERIAL LIBRARY, made by me. Material Library for T3Ed with textures, imitating gold, silver and bronze. For those people, who doesn't have 3D MAX.

The Dark FateNOTES:- This Matlib uses original textures from T3Ed and doesn't require any other textures packs.
- Attention! This is NOT a so-called build-in golden or silver effect, this is a color fitting of a metal texture to force it to look like a loot surface. At least, this trick allows to use "golden", "silver" and "bronze" surfaces directly in the T3Editor.

Judith, look at the post above yours - it's the same model and it looks OK with another texture. By the way, I could make a mistake while creating this "golden" effect. I just started playing with these effects and sometimes I'm not sure, am I doing something right or wrong. How did you made your "silver"? Did you create your own cubemap? Or used some from T3Ed?
