Relinking or relocating textures?

I picked up Didu's "medieval barn" at Renderosity, and it looks great. However, the textures are in a folder that has a different name/location than the model looks for, requiring me to relink each texture every time I want to load the set. Is there a simple way to reassign the textures folder, so the model can find them?

    There are 3 ways to go about this:

    1) Load the items, locating the textures when you are prompted, and save as a material preset (or character preset, to save the shape as well as the textures).

    2) Move or copy the textures to the folder the preset is looking for them in.

    3) Edit the preset to fix the incorrect paths.

    Option 3 is what I want to learn. How?

    Open the load file with a text editor and correct all the paths. CR2, PP2, FC2, and others in that mode are just text files (Scripts) that load the item. I use Notpad++ or WordPad to edit mine.
