select the edges and go to edit polygons - normals - soften harded...and set all for soft

this should take the hard edge away mate

i'm not sure, but it could be that they are different faces (i mean not all verts are connected with the neightbour face) hmmm... don't understand myself user added image

but i would try to select (mouse drag) the verts in a corner of a face and then merge them.... it should solve the prob

Thanks guys - the Smoothing of edges and the other didnt seem to work though user added image i was thinking maybe there isnt enough edges going down cause there is a big space in there, i tryed to use the split polly tool but it wouldnt connect it does 1 or 2 then wont keep going
