I do not wanna interrupt on sourceforge again so here the final observations regarding the normalmaps & glowmaps for our teams:
This is 100% tested & valid information now (afaik):
Normalmaps do not work if more than one skin is defined in the md2 file !
Glowmaps do not work for bodies if more than one skin is defined in the md2 file !
Only glowmaps work for the heads of our models, normalmaps do never work !
This info should help us track down the problems origin easily & eliminate it...
