Ulead Cool 3D Studio Help

I was wondering if it would be possible to take a 3D model that came with this program and apply the Object Explosion plugin effect to the 3D model. It is a jeep and I have a stream of particles from a spaceship that is being fired at the jeep but after that I want to make it explode. The only catch is when I select the 3D model called “Car” in the program, the option in the Easy Palette to apply the Object Explosion disappears. However, when I select, let’s say, the rear frame or the steering wheel, the explosion effect reappears. Is there any way that I can make the whole jeep explode? Meaning, can I convert the jeep into an object instead of it being a 3D model? This problem has been bugging me for days.

Thanks. :slight_smile:
