TS1 is being feisty with me, so I was wondering, how do you texture an object, using textures from an outside source. All I know how to do is to texture it in the basic textures using the paint tool.
Also, how do you add beams and lasers, etc.?

Use Max Sterling's tutorial, over at FSW:

That covers everything you need to make a fighter. A tute specific to texturing is an oldie but a goodie, by Zarathud:
