There are prefixes like that with textures and models.
There were 3 LoD (Level of Detail) options you could use for textures and models. These will vary from good quality at hightest setting, to just a blur at lowest setting.
L01, are small low quality textures/models.
L02, are medium quality textures/models.
L03, are large, high quality textures/models.
Depending on what textures/models would be loaded depended on what graphics settings you have Renegade at.

Names like l03_ and l10_ mean that the texture was initially created for (or requested by the designer of) that particular single player mission. Once it was created, it was then available for any of the mappers to use on any of the maps.

lol 
Many of the textures are used in many levels for example the map C&C_Alpine is so damn blinding a skin was made to turn the snow to sand thus relieving your eyes.
Because this texture was shared, maps like mesa and the chateau mission also have sand as a replacement. Recycling saves the environment and the number of files in a .mix

either dtx1 (normal) or dtx5 (with alphalayer).
try both and make sure the texture is the same size as the original, in filesize and in pixels.
|
everything was same and i tryed the dtx1 and came out black so i guess only one last one to try!

evidently if it has an alpha channel it has to be DXT5 otherwise DXT1 any other and it will be black...
of course there is the good old filename clash.
