Question for the pros!

Ok, first of all I ask this because I can't find the answer from anywhere or anyone!

So, the question is:

Why do some skins work from the tex folder while others have to be imported to the .dat files?

In other words:
Why can I change the type VII and type IX skins simply by placing the matching .tga files in the texture\tnormal\tex folder, and the type II and type XXI, I have to import the matching .tga files into the matching .dat files?

Is there a way that it can be changed, so that is not necessary to import .tga files into the dats?

Let's see if there is someone out there which can answer these ones...
