Just to clarify that purp5 is the Talk Texture - calling if 'face' might confuse the OP if he reads what both you and I have written.

5 is the talk texture for most models, yes... and like i said, he can call it something else. Obviously just listing it with only a number is the problem.

One of many, a lot of skins I setup don't always work immediately, or only parts of them don't work; entire skin works great but the head is blank or something. It can take forever trying to work out what specifically is the issue.

Turns out the old help file for Skinmaker is no longer viewable with the current version of windows, which is problematic as I've never needed to use the program before.

So, quick question: How do I use skinmaker to extract faces from existing .utx files?
