-====== Custom Texture ======
-**Custom texture** by Mateck
-That custom texture is a very interesting thing, pretty nice and saves quite some megabytes.
-Any details on how its done?
-Yes it saves megabytes as we don't need to create .p3d models for every paint scheme in our addon.
-The way to do this is very simple.
-) select all faces that are using single texture\\
-) create new selection
-http://img507.imageshack.us/my.php?image=76597046um7.jpg
-) in config.cpp under vehicle class put something like this
-<code cpp>
-hiddenSelections[] = {"01_co","02_co","03_co","04_co"};
-</code>
-where *_co are selections used by our T-72
-) now those selections will be invisible in game, to avoid this we need to use setObjectTexture command under Init EventHandlers of our addon or later in game
-For our T-72 we used following code
-<code cpp>
-class Extended_Init_EventHandlers
-{
-     class CH_T72 {
-          init = CH_Textures = [_this select 0, ""BIS""] execVM ""\ch_t72\scripts\textures.sqf"";";
-                    };
-};
-</code>
-and here is example code for textures.sqf
-<code cpp>
-_tex = _this select 0;
-switch (_this select 1) do
-{
-case "BIS" :
-{
-_tex setObjectTexture [1,"\ch_t72\data\t72_1_co.paa"];
-_tex setObjectTexture [2,"\ch_t72\data\t72_2_co.paa"];
-_tex setObjectTexture [3,"\ch_t72\data\t72_3_co.paa"];
-_tex setObjectTexture [4,"\ch_t72\data\t72_4_co.paa"];
-};
-};
-</code>
-And that will be all. Fell free to use this code or change it whatever you like ;)
-We still need to test this feature to ensure that there is no negative impact on performance and it works fine in multiplayer.
-Need to say that this hole idea of custom textures is inspired by Dune Buggy addon by Sebastian Muller from OFP
-**Suma**
-That was really the original purpose, but with ArmA you can also change textures on "hiddenSelections" using "hiddenSelectionsTextures".
