I hope this helps. The warwain lods can be repathed in the text file but the texture seems to seek out models_unit/textures folder. I am not a modeller but my understanding is that the cas file (as Teleklos will know from such things as vanilla palm-tree models) are keyed to the texture rather than it being designated in a text file.

Borsook corrected the wrong texture of the Scotti Chariots in his RTW-BI Enhancment Pack so that may be an avenue of research (he has it in the pak file I believe) - but a good modeller should be able to tell you how it works.

I'm just a coder ;)
