Is there a program that takes your model, and then draws the lines of the polygons onto a bitmap, giving you the lines to draw your textures on so that it will enable you to produce the perfect texture for your object.

Loads.

Lithunwrap is ok but I'm sure someone will suggest others.

Try looking around in the 3d forum theres usually someone asking this question there

Texture Unwrap and Lithunwrap do this.

There's even a program that does this process but backwards as modelling in Max allows you to draw the texture, and then drag the polygons to fit.

UVmapper is free. Read the tutorial and you'll see just how good it is.

You can take each element, down to polygon level, and unwrap it in any way you like. For example, you can cylinder unwrap a rocket body, but box unwrap the tail, all in one bitmap.
