Some of the models are relatively simple, and do not show or use all of the container and tag options available for that particular Kind. The config.txt file is displayed in this chapter to show the typical containers used and the type of data that is entered for the tags.

	Please Note: ~~The actual working config~~,~~txt file requires and includes brackets to separate containers and tags. These are not shown in~~ the config.txt ~~in this chapter for clarity~~ and ~~brevity~~. ~~Please refer~~ to the ~~actual example config.txt file for full working files~~.		'''Please Note:''' Contrary to the original Content Creator's Guide for TC, the listings for config.txt files contain all necessay braces (curly brackets "{" and "}"). It's important to understand the relationship of containers and their tags.

	The test examples are taken from the models built into TC, primarily those developed by Auran, not supplied by Third Party Creators. As such, many are older models, and the config.txt files have been updated by Content Creator Plus. The example files are available for download, and they include the config.txt files and the textures, but not the 3dsmax or gmax meshes, as these were not available in many instances.

	Mote: Do not change the name of the texture file from the original, for example make black.texture become blacknew.texture.txt. The exported .im files have the material name "black" encapsulated in the file, and will look for a matching black.texture or black.texture.txt file in the asset. You can however change the actual graphic file names and refer to them correctly in the text of the .texture.txt file.
