Model Texture reference

What is the fastest and cleanest way to find what textures a unit uses?
In working on the content creation suite, I am trying to check all units models for their textures and make sure they exist.
Anyone know of a quick way of checking the textures a model uses?

Open the 3do in notepad, they are listed in the top.

Well I see the references to the textures, but not "near the top" by any stretch of the imagination.
more digging is needed.

Dude, what do you want? honestly, I just read the 3do file. Most people around here rip the ota textures for their mods. I am one of the few who didn't.
Reading the text of the 3do file is the fastest way. Well outside of writing a parser just to extract the names.

I have at another pc, but it's really hackjob, basically unusable for anything besides this util.

Wow, one of the devs of the engine that reads the format and its textures made a tool which can read textures from the same format! What a twist!

So that's where you've been hiding, Gnome.
Get onto IRC, I have things to hassle you about ;P
