Skirt textres are baked and have been, but they are optional. If the TEX_SKIRT_BAKED is undefined, it means that the skirt should not be rendered, but it need not be defined for the rest of the avatar to be rendered.
Avatars wearing a "bald base" still have a hair texture (and baked hair texture) defined. The baldness comes from shrinking the hair down into the head. The textures still have to be defined for the avatar to be rendered, however. -Nyx Dahlia Trimble wrote: > How about the skirt texture?
