I'm using a component, which has a 3d body included in the library as in the following screenshot

What i get when i switch to 3d view is this

What should i do so that altium displays the pcb3d model? It's not that the exteuded body covers the actual .step model. I've checked for the altium to prefer .step model to the extruded simple body. You can see, that it generally works because the 0805 caps are displayed correctly.

EDIT:
Now i've realised that the said model works in Legacy 3d mode, but then the caps which displayed fine before are displayed as grey blocks

Iknow that site. That's where i've downloaded the resistor model. But that doesn't solve my problem which is: i don;t want to manually add 3d model to library that already has one
