      Does anyone know of a script that will automatically triangulate all faces in a mesh (preferably keeping its original texture)?

        Subd and smooth can subdivide the mesh into triangles, although youll get a lot of extra faces. It does preserve the original textures though.

          Maybe it would only work on (fairly) horizontal surfaces (and maybe not on closed, hollow "solids"). I don't know.

              If you export to OBJ (SU has a setting to triangulate all faces) it will do that, you can then just import the file into SU again.
