Query: How do you make a side that uses only one model, but a different skin for each guy?

You have to duplicate the .msh file and hexedit in different texture names for each different skin.

So i just have to find where it says the texture name and rename it in the hex editor?

That's correct. You also need to make sure that your new name has the same number of characters as the old name (once you look around in the editor you'll see why). Note that sometimes there's more than one instance of the .tga name.

Hey can't you just include this in the odf: This is how the battle droids use the same b1 geometry but have different colors

Sometimes, yes.
But the .msh has to have been exported in a certain way, for this command to work, and (unfortuanatly) most aren't.

Query: So, for example I could change cis_inf_jangofett.tga to mnd_inf_jettroopr.tga?

Yes, that would work, same number of characters.
