there must be a possibility to give a texture a visibile/invisible effect via the alphachannel of an image (eg. PNG). This is needed to make plants, lightcones, flames, lightnings

The faces of an object have to be enumerated to be able to apply multiple textures to one object, the process, that is refered to as skinning by halflife

What is UV Mapping? Well the easiest way to think of it is of unfolding all of the faces of your model so that it lies flat. In this flat form, you can paint your texture onto it in a 2D pain package such as Adobe Photoshop and then, it has to be imported by orxonox.

Implement such a UV-Mapping algorithm.

Half-Life has come up with a method in which it can take a set of five or so basic textures that all tile together, and randomly tile a wall with them. This is exceedingly useful, as it cuts way down on artifacts. You can make each texture have its own individual details, but you'll never see them consistently repeated in any specific pattern.
