<p>In other words, these utilities edit your Textures BSA so that Oblivion cannot find the original version of texture files you have replaced, thus forcing the game to load the replacements instead of the originals. Without getting too technical, this works much like taking a book and scrambling some entries from the table of contents so those chapters can't be found anymore, even though the chapters are really still there -- thus allowing the process to be easily reversed later by restoring the table of contents back to its original state.</p>
