When making 2 versions of the same girl, such as a cum & clean variety... you may need to manually rename the generic z_texture folder & files for the 2nd girl. (the z_folder has numbered folders in it that was created by the character editor automatically). This is because the program by default will make the 2 girls SHARE the same z-texture folder when they begin life from the same original skin/body texture. This seems to be a problem I encountered using the editor.

1. It will be necessary to create a NEW z_textures folder and rename as in step 2...  you must copy/rename the texture files (body, head, limbs,etc) to this new folder. FOR EXAMPLE. in the z_textures folder you see a 93939f04323_b sub-folder....  this is renamed as 93939f04323_c ***I'm only using 'c' as example, but could be X or V, or any letter.

2. Rename each texture .png file (f_HEAD-93939f04323_c    f_BODY-93939f04323_c   etc.) so that now all the body, head, limbs, eyes, teeth, have  93939f04323_c  in their name. (If not right, your textures will appear blank or white once loaded in the editor on step 4)  :o

3. Copy the XML file to the 93939f04323_c folder.    Edit every instance the old "93939f04323_b" folder is used, and change to "93939f04323_c". --- Double check the XML file to make sure you've found and changed all the old "93939f04323_b" usages. ***If not right, your textures will appear blank/white once loaded in the editor on step 4.  >:(
 
4. Load the new version of the girl into the editor, load the skin textures, if she loads and the body, head, limb textures are correct.... you've done everything correct. ---  Now save the character & thumbnail (not using the same name as original girl of course), then check her on the main menu to make sure she has a thumbnail photo. If satisfied load her in the editor one last time and save creating the zip file for upload.

5. You will have 2 girls with independent names, independent skin textures, and thumb photos. No more sharing the same skin textures & z_textures folders.
