How can i smooth my .dae mesh?

Question

I have a .dae Mesh File and a Wavefront OBJ File if i import both in Unity the DAE File consists of a whole bunch of polygons it looks really bad... the OBJ File is smooth but it has just 1 Mesh to which i can attach textures and there are usually more than 3 textures for body eyes and mouth and extras^^

so there are two ways to help me: 1. you can tell me how to attach more than 1 textures to a OBJ file with 1 Mesh^^ 2. you can tell me how to smooth the edges from the DAE File

I really hope you can help me by the way if you need an example: http://www.models-resource.com/wii_gamecube/pokepark2/sheet/1974

please help me !!

in the modelling software, try to split the 3 parts of the mesh so that assignment of textures can be independent. Or try to UV map the object inside the software so then you could use 1 texture per mesh.

To add or remove smoothness go to ImportSettings of your mesh, and in the Normals Section change both fields to Calculate, then play around the smoothness

you don't understand there is one mesh for the body in the obj file

even if i had another mesh or would duplicate it it would be just for the body part... you can try it the files arent big i linked to them... please help me^^ and by the way even if i redefine the meshes (even if i could do that xD) i need at least ... about 100 objects so it should be a little bit simpler than this

so i have to create a whole body texture file xD impossible for me i'm not a grafic-guy^^ i'm just a programmer

And is there any way to smooth the edges from the dae file? i mean it should be basicalle the same as the object file... i mean look at pokepark 2 they had full textures models without edges and complete textures how did they do it because THIS are the files from pokepark 2 EXACTLY the files...

The only way to keep one mesh, is to Texture the whole thing without trying to assign colors to body parts one-by-one

To adjust smoothing on the mesh. Go to the File Import Settings of your mesh(.dae collada) and inside the Normals Sections check that both choices are Calculated, then you can adjust that smoothness there :)
