I take that back....not going to bother with the plugin. The texture I was looking at was one I was screwing around with in BodyPaint (that I really messed up). I started checking my regular Vic3 tex's and the one's I converted from Vic2 tex's....and can not see any faults. I compaired Vic3 and SP side by side with the same texture(s),and still can't see any different. Whatever the different may be is so slight I really can't see it. Thanks once again for your help..
