How do you extract textures from the vanilla ships?
I don't mean the .mat file, I mean the texture images themselves so I can texture in Metasequoia.
Is this even possible? If not, how is texturing done?
Also, it is legal to use vanilla textures, right?
I'm pretty sure they're already in use on many custom ships, but I just want to make sure that those modelers didn't get any special permissions from certain people in order to use the textures.
