Texturing

i have a ship that i made completely in bryce 5. can somebody make or provide a link to a COMPLETELY step by step beginners guide to texturing in bryce 5 please? ive tried texturing from tutorials before, but they didnt work because they were for single objects, not groups of objects. webpages or just a detailed explanation would be appreciated to the max. thanks for taking the time to read my plea for help.
