Hi Francesco,
It's not possible to identify the problem without the specific data. If this is a PDB entry, what is the ID so we can try opening the mmCIF?
Or, if this is not in the public database, please use Help... Report a Bug and attach a session that has all the bundle.pdb loaded into Chimera, and then in the description say how you combined them and what the problem is with the combined result.
Before you do that, make sure that you are displaying everything in the combined result. Maybe the parts that seem to be missing were just hidden.
I should mention that ChimeraX is much better with mmCIF and very large complexes than Chimera, but maybe you are planning to use analysis features that are only in Chimera (not yet in ChimeraX).
Best,
Elaine
