Don' t have time to do that and then make a package of it again and upload it on mediafire........

BUMP!
Using them.
And they're pretty neat so why not bumping.
RE: CUSTOM MATERIALS - Traggey - 01-22-2013
Because no mipmaps~ Yay, mipmaps = better preformance.
T's a thing.

most productive post I've ever seen. 11/2

Mipmaps are in .dds textures. They cut and shrink the original image over and over, and in games, like Amnesia, the further you get from those textures, the less detailed the textures get. It's for optimization.

Power of 2 textures are required for dds format because that's what GPU's like, some old GPU's don't even render non power of 2 textures, dds is also a file format made by Nvidia especially optimized for GPU's and should always be used if supported by the game engine, dds dx1 should be used for simple diffuse textures and dds dx5 should be used for normal maps and transparent textures (alpha map), to export dds textures you can use the nvidia plugin for photoshop or even use the free paint.net image editing program.
Having said that the wulfen textures should already be power of 2 because Doom 3 also requires that.
For the ones that don't know power of two textures can be.
32x32
64x64
64x32 or 32x64
128x128
512x512
512x128 or 128x512

1024x512 or 512x1024
