Dont think so..

Im mean think about it.. What would happen if you called that on a model that has been loaded as a ".X" file but you haven't loaded the image!

Its a good idea though... Why you need it?

I don't know about if you load a pretextured object...but I use this command to find what texture is on an object that I manually apply a texture to in DB:

limb texture(objectnum,0)

For example:

if limb texture(objectnum,0)<>shieldimage then texture object numobject,shieldimage

I hope it helps you out

I can see what you mean, but ALL of my 3d is done currently from primary objects! lol

but then again, all my code is very basic, just that I curently have about 30 plains on the screen, I can get the object number using the pick object command, but when I click the mouse I want to change the texture on that object ( each object has 2 seperate textures, one of on, one for off)
so I have 60 textures, and I want to say to inc the current texture by 1.

saves me using a for next loop, or lots of if statments

So you understand that you can use the limb texture() command, right? Just do this:

texture object objectnum,limb texture(objectnum,0)+1

Or whatever. You can use the limb texture() command for what you need because you apply the texture in DB.
