How about making a custom side, loading it in the LUA, and munging it?

Check the FAQ thread.

you cant do that easily, first you have to create a texture that includes all textureparts and has a proper resolution of a pwer of two
then you have to edit the model UVs with a 3d modelingprogramm to fit them on the new texture

but why do you want to do that? no model crashes because it has multiple textures..

Merge all of your meshes into one then re-export.

Perhaps if you followed the advice in the other thread you may get somewhere. I can assure you this is a modelling issue, not a skinning issue. There is something wrong with your model setup/ UV setup/export, not your texture.

Indeed, you only need one thread to address one question, not two.

I already told you, all you have to do is regroup all of your meshes into one.

Ya i get that but how? I dont see this regroup button you speak of?

-what is it found under.
-what program Milkshade or Gimp.
-how do I use it.

This is all stuff I need to know not just the regroup button. THERE ARE MILLIONS OF BUTTONS and 110 of them are on my keyboard.
