A [[TextureSet]] object holds a collection of texture files (.DDS). Texture sets can be applied to meshes in the [[Model Data]] Dialogue, so the same mesh can use different textures.

=='''Map List'''==
* '''Diffuse''': The regular "color" map. Normally has no suffix, although some users use "''_d''" to differentiate them from the rest.
* '''Normal/Gloss''': The normal map used to simulate bumps and small details in the model. Normally has the suffix "''_n''".
* '''Environment Mask''': Manages the strength of the effects listed under Environment. Normally has the suffix "''_m''" or "''_em''".
* '''Glow/Skin/Hair''': Make certain parts of a texture have emissive properties. For glow maps the suffix is usually "''_g''". Although ''hardly ever'' used, the suffixes for skin and hair are normally "''_sk''" ("skin") and "''_hl''" ("highlights").
* '''Height''': This handles the parallax offset to give a mesh additional details alongside a normal map. Has no specific suffix.
* '''Environment''': Gives a mesh glossy or reflective properties through cubemaps and effects. Normally has the suffix "''_e''".

* '''Has specular light:'''  
* '''Has specular map:''' Allows the engine to generate lights and shadows onto the texture.
* '''Decal Data:'''
* '''Decal Data:''' Gives the texture set additional properties when used as a dynamically-generated decal, such as bullet holes on walls and blood splatters during combat.

*Trying to set new TextureSet in furniture causes GECK and game crash. Create new model instead.
*Trying to give new TextureSets to furniture will cause both the game and the GECK to crash. In these cases, it is recommended to include a copy of the original model with new texture paths instead.
