Derroith:
Well, I made one of my first models today, and attempted at making it block-o.

Problem is, the damn thing is smooth shaded or whatever you may call that, but its smooth, and I want it gone ;c

How can I do it?

Blastdown:
That is known as smooth-shading and what you're looking for is called flat-shading.

If you're using Milkshape 3D, here is a flat-shading tutorial.
If you're using Blender, select the mesh and go into Edit Mode. Select the mesh again and press W, go down to Set Solid and click it. Export it.

I did everything, but do I need to do that color thing thats in the beginning and end?

From the picture, it appears that you've already gotten the textures set.
You don't have to change them, and the piece at the end isn't necessary either.

This piece is probably the only thing you need to really do.

4. Click the 'Vertex' menu and choose 'Unweld'.

5. Under the 'Groups' tab, uncheck 'Auto Smooth'.

6. Click the 'Vertex' menu and choose 'Weld Together'.

7. Click the 'Tools' menu and choose 'Tile texture mapper..'.

8. In the 'Tile texture mapper settings' window, just leave the default settings and click 'OK'.

Edit: Make sure you're exporting with "Torque DTS Plus Exporter", and not "Torque Game Engine DTS Exporter".
