I don't understand how blizzard gets a single kind of item to spawn with multiple invgfx. Please elaborate.

Can you specify what you are talking about? Are you talking about how rings and amulets and charms can spawn with multiple graphics? That is done in the itemtypes.txt file, you will see some columns with a bunch of inv file names.

Yeah that's what I'm talking about.
However in misc.txt there are singular invgfx codes for each item, like jewels, charms, etc that don't correspond in any way I see to ItemTypes.txt.
ex: misc.txt invGfx for jewel is listed as invgswe. As opposed to the multiple listings in ItemTypes. Any reason for this?

don't quote me on this... but I'm pretty sure the altgfx in itemtypes.txt overrides the invgfx in misc.txt

I just tested to see if that worked, it doesn't.
