how do I tone down a custom model's skin brightness and smooth the poly edges?

[jaggedpuffy]

Uh...I put GUILE in Unreal Tournament 3, but how do I tone down his skin brightness and smooth the poly edges?

I am only using a diffuse map and normal map...what other map should I use?

Thanks,

Specular for tint and brightness.

I believe specular Power too. A higher SpecPower will give things a more sharper type shine. While a lower value will spread the light over a larger area.

Oh right, smoothing the model...

What program are you using?

In 3Dmax there should be a polygon smoothing-groups thing in the poly/mesh-edit area.
In Blender 2.5 just hit spacebar and type "smooth" to find the function. Maya XSI and C4D I really have no idea.
To the best of my knowledge there isn't a way to smooth it within editor itself, though I could be wrong.
