don't really know, but your awesome PiratSS !
ooooooooooook. Chances are, if you downloaded the object off the web, this person made it with a trial version of something. I downloaded a castle off the web, and it was in 3ds. The problem was, the demo version of 3ds has something so when you export it screws up your file, so you couldnt edit the object in another proggy and re-download the demo of 3ds max.
That may be it,,,,,
