Hi Kryzysztof,

Is it possible that there is some error causing all of your polygons to 
lie on top of each other?  Try viewing them with "objline" -- you can 
use "objline model.rad | meta2tga -x 1024 -y 1024 > model.tga" then 
view the output with an image viewer that recognizes Targa files, or 
convert the Targa image to Radiance with "ra_t8 -r model.tga > 
model.pic".  This will show you what your model looks like without 
having to run it through oconv, first.
