i dont kno who wmany people know this but when i had problems with creatign a new side i was told i needed to hex edit the .msh file and tell it to read whatever i renamed the tga to. for anyone who is interested instead of going to the trouble just add this line to your new characters odf:-

OverrideTexture = "name of tga"

this will tell the it to override the default texture with that one. sorry if this is obvious lol i dont know how many poeple know

PAN-Ford stated in his side help thread that that doesn't always work. The original mesh has to be setup right. But if you got it working great!

That doesn't always work, only if the txture is laid out the exact same. Otherwise the texture mapping won't be compatible and it could end up with a butt for a face or something.
