Textures or skins are 2D graphics that are wrapped around 3D objects by the game.
Location of files
The textures are stored as .png files in the /Textures folder. Which /Textures folder depends on whether the object is part of the standard game or part of an add-on.
$PROGDIR/
Oolite.app/
Resources/
Textures/ <-- Textures for standard ships live here.
Addons/
ShipX/
Textures/ <-- Textures for ShipX live here.
ShipY/
Textures/ <-- Textures for ShipY live here.
Ship textures usually carry an obvious name e.g. ShipX_body.png. But not always. To confirm which textures are loaded for ShipX open the file shipdata.plist in a text editor.
$PROGDIR/AddOns/ShipX/shipdata.plist
<key>ShipX</key>
