Found a way to execute LUA script engine commands from console. You need to put "@" before them. Now all power of LUA scripting engine + core console commands lie at your fingertips.
Revealing fog-of-war, adding any numbers of any creatures, getting specific spells. Replenish movement points. Want that funny artifact? Set any hero stats to any values. Used a trainer and screwed your game? No problem, with a couple commands you can fix your character. Encountered a critical bug and mission just won't end? Better ask what you can't do now than what you can. Unpack your paks and start looking at lua script examples.
@Win()
@Loose()
@GiveArtefact( 'Isabell', ARTIFACT_RING_OF_HASTE );
@OpenCircleFog(64,125,0,15,PLAYER_1);
Btw use this command
bind showfps 'F1'
Or better yet perma-bind this in your input.cfg
Besides other usefull info it shows you camera coordinates which you can use to functions which require this as argument.

@TeachHeroSpell("Isabell",SPELL_PHANTOM);

@AddHeroCreatures( "Agrael", CREATURE_HELL_HOUND, 1000 );
ChangeHeroStat( 'Isabell', STAT_MOVE_POINTS, 30000 );

Bypass campaign-set town building limits?

SetTownBuildingLimitLevel('Town3', 13, 1);

Ofcourse this is just examples most of which need to be passed different arguments. E.g. you need to know internal script hero names, town ids. Consult data/scripts first for some function syntaxis and many constants. Then start looking at actual mapscripts examples.

Use search to look in data folder in files of type *.lua

Thanks Val.

To answer trier's question, _LOD_ refers to adventure models and textures, as opposed to combat models.

Now, let's try to tell more about 3D models, which textures are clearly a part, btw:
there are different elements necessary for the 3d representation of a creature:
- the Model, composed of
* the Skeleton
* the Geometry
* the Material, that is, ultimately, the Texture(s)
- the AnimSet, pointing for various situations (idle, cast, ...) to
* the BasicSkeletonAnim

There are two models/animsets per creature, one for combat, one for adventure map (_lod). ------------skip--------------
