 '''Syntax'''
-  (string:FilePath) NifGetNthChildBaseTexture short:ChildID short:NifID
+  (string:filePath) NiSourceTextureGetFile short:nifID ''short:blockID''
-Returns the file path (relative to the <tt>Oblivion\Data\</tt> folder, '''not <tt>Oblivion\Data\Textures\</tt>''') of the Base Texture of the specified Child of the root. If the Child does not have a Base Texture, or NiTexturingProperty, or the process fails for any other reason, an empty string is returned and an appropriate message is printed to the Console and NifSE.log.
+Returns the path relative to <tt>Oblivion\Textures\</tt> to the texture file used by the indicated <tt>NiSourceTexture</tt>-derived block. The <tt>blockID</tt> argument, as usual, defaults to 0, indicating the root which is a <tt>NiNode</tt> block. <tt>NiNode</tt> blocks are not derived from <tt>NiSourceTexture</tt>, so this function will almost never be used without specifying the <tt>blockID</tt> desired.
+Typically, one determines <tt>blockID</tt> by using [[NiAVObjectGetPropertyByType]] to get the <tt>NiTexturingProperty</tt> associated with a <tt>NiAVObject</tt>, and then using [[NiTexturingPropertyGetTextureSource]] to get the <tt>blockID</tt> of the <tt>NiSourceTexture</tt>.
