Well, it's only a little bit faster

Very cool, thanks man. I'm going to give that a try, for converting BO materials etc it's waaay faster!!

You could also use 'my' method to make fx from any image / gif, so guess that's a little added value. Going to try your ass-man setting as well on that though, they Always confuse the ** out of me.. I got to these pretty much by traill and error, and where the only working combination i could find so far

Thanks for this!

That usually has to do with the size of your image that you saved. I get it when I forget to make my dds a power of 2.
