uv-mapping is only available in 3.5/megapov, single triangles can only be
textured with predeclared textures, this is mentioned in the help file:

"Any number of triangle and/or smooth_triangle statements can be used and
each of those triangles can be individually textured by assigning a
texture identifier to it. The texture has to be declared before the mesh
is parsed. It is not possible to use texture definitions inside the
triangle or smooth triangle statements. This is a restriction that is
necessary for an efficient storage of the assigned textures."
