Also, if you are only going to change one skin file name in the .GR2, make sure that you change every instance of that file name. When using the find string search, keep running it and changing the file name until it says string not found. There is usually 3 instances of the same texture file name in any given .GR2.

Yes renamed all instances of the NLL_AO01.dds to NLL_AO04.dds (My Red skin).
Now if you look thru the Lod file NLL_AO01.dds is the only skin refrenced anywhere - so its a default skin for long distance that is applied to the model.
Now the other skins in the folder NLL_AO02.dds (Blue) and NLL_AO03.dds (Camo) are not refrenced in the Lod.gr2 file at all.
This lead me to conclude that alternative skins from the base skin are assigned elsewhere, the problem is where .
