*Once texture have finished the UVs update your rig with the latest mesh*

Hello Neil,
Are you suggesting that we reference the texture file in rigging , mostly 
it throws up a lot of problems and have been advised not to reference model 
in rigging.
The other option is to transfer the skinning from the old model to the new 
one and do touch-ups....Here I am not sure if other kinds of deformers 
(blendshapes,cluters and wraps) can also be transfered proceduraly.If ithis 
is possible then I'm reaching somewhere.
Any hints and possible directions I should be taking ?

Thank you.
