- Once you manage to locate the filename of each models (base body and wheels/tire) go to the [MODELS] folder and search for *.SMF or *.BIN file that matches the particular filename. You can edit *.SMF files using dedicated 3D modeling tools such as "Z-Modeler" or "3D MAX/Studio" with plugins that can support and import/export *.SMF format (EVO1/EVO2).
Good Luck!
