When changing the names of the materials, on the right side, there will be a tab labeled Textures that will be selected by default. It will contain the names of all the textures being used by that material, and these will all be the names of the old textures. Switch over to the texture <code>sbfres</code> now, and change all the textures to names that fit your new actor. | When changing the names of the materials, on the right side, there will be a tab labeled Textures that will be selected by default.

When you are done changing all the names of the textures, switch back to the model <code>sbfres</code> and look at the Textures section of the material. Click on one of the entries in the table (for example, <code>[OldModelName]_Alb</code>) and then click on Edit. A new window will pop up, with a list of all the textures contained in the texture <code>sbfres</code>. Choose the one that corresponds with the new texture (for example, <code>[NewModelName]_Alb</code> or <code>[NewModelName]_Alb.0</code>) and click save. Do this for all the entries in the Textures table for this material, and then repeat the process for every other material. | When you are done changing all the names of the textures, switch back to the model <code>sbfres</code> and look at the Textures section of the material.

If you are editing an armor that is dyeable, you then need to expand the Animations folder on the left, then Texture Pattern Animations, then right-click the folder that corresponds to your item (Head for the head, Upper for the torso, Lower for the legs). Select Export, and save it somewhere.

Select Export, select to save as "Yet Another Markup Language" (or YAML Ain't Markup Language, if it's been since changed to the official name) and save it somewhere. Open the new <code>yaml</code> file that you just saved in a text editor. You will need to edit all the texture and material names to the new ones. For example, changing <code>[OldModelName]_Alb.0</code> to <code>[NewModelName]_Alb.0</code> and <code>[OldMaterialName]</code> to <code>[NewMaterialName]</code> (e.g. <code>Mt_Hood_001</code> to <code>Mt_Hood_9001</code>). Save it, then, back in Switch Toolbox, right-click on the folder inside Texture Pattern Animations that corresponds to your item, and select Replace. Select the <code>yaml</code> you edited. | ||
When you are done, select any file or folder from the model <code>sbfres</code>, in the list on the left, and save it. Switch Toolbox will ask if you want to Yaz0 compress the file, click Yes. Then click on any file or folder from the texture <code>sbfres</code>, in the list on the left, and save it. Switch Toolbox will again ask if you want to Yaz0 compress the file, click Yes. If you are editing a WiiU texture <code>sbfres</code>, it will then ask you to save the Tex2 sbfres, so save it and Yaz0 compress it, as well.
