The custom model may have too many polys or the texture is too crazy.

Grab your custom model and lower the poly count - it will help a lot.

True.

It's probably easier upgrading your PC than messing with models

Chris if you use 3d max thres a plugin called "polygon cruncher". Good for taking high poly models you use for cinematics and making a more manageable size for in game models. The colonel-x model uses 1800 and some change(faces/polys)....so this would probly be a good goal.

Well I never said it was cheap. But you take a model like the one I use for my avatar that I create in Poser for cinamatic sceen animations and that char has around 250,000 faces( polygons ). Put it in the davinnci pose and do a production render front and back. Then import this same char and pose into 3dmax for rigging and prior to that you can crunch it down to like 1k-1300. You then can do a uv map of this new low poly model and use the renders you made in poser to "skin" the new models uvmap perfectly. I find the loss of polygons is of no concern with a great map, cause all your details are retained from the full poly render.
