As the original Òread-meÓ file was lost, this one was written to give you some information about XTextures.

¥ XTextures is a freeware plug-in for Adobe Photoshopª that Eric Wenger (KPT Bryceª creator) wrote about two years ago. No bugs or problems have been encountered using XTextures and it works with Photoshop 3.0, older versions and all applications compatible with the Adobe Photoshopª plug-in format.

¥ From limited testing on a PowerMac, it seems to cause the ever-so-present No FPU installed error (on machines without Software FPU).  No optimized PowerMac version has been mentioned, but perhaps if we plead....

¥ It seems to require a 68030 or above with a math-coprocessor, but it is recommended that you have a 68040.

¥ XTextures creates 2D non repetitive textures.

¥ XTexture should appear in the other sub-menu in your Filters menu. If not, follow this trick (it works for all other filters) you can change the XTexture sub-menu assignation using ResEdit :

1) Open a copy of the plug-in with ResEdit
2) Open the  8BFM resource and note the ID number(s) of the sub-menu(s) your are interested to change
3) Open the PiMi resource and then select the resource(s) you noticed just before
4) Get the resourceÕs information (Command - I)
5) In the field ÒnameÓ write the name of the sub-menu you want your plug-in to appear in, or a new name if you want to create a new sub-menu (Photoshop will create it automatically)
6) Save the plug-in and quit ResEdit
7) Launch Photoshop and look at your new, clean Filter menu.
Note, if you cancel all references to a particular sub-menu, Photoshop will remove it automatically.

For KPT Bryceª fans : look in the "about XTexture" window, youÕll be very surprised, if this information is still valid.
