Can't figure out what textures are what

[Botdra]

I was messing with some mod ideas and realized just how hard it is to figure out what textures are for what. I wanted to find the texture for the effect that happens when your character is hit by lightning, but there's so many that it could be... anyone have any tips on how to figure out what textures correspond with certain things in the game? For effects like this they never show up long enough for you to see them in-game in any detail.

Just read the .efx and .shader files, they tell you what textures they use.
