Can't even launch the game to test maps, but Jabroni Brawl Episode 3 can...

Maps are broken (all black; not fullbright), could be missing shaders or something?
Will have to talk to Zero to see if they can tell me what I'm doing wrong

Installer & a copy of my install have been uploaded to The Internet Archive;

Archive includes extracted maps & tools for pulling assets from .apk archives
(An older version of extensions.archives.utoplanet)

Figured it out.
.vmts use the .mat extension in MeruBasu
Did a bulk rename w/ Linux' rename utility via Cygwin:

find . -name '*.mat' -exec rename .mat .vmt {} +

(Not to be confused w/ the Perl rename utility: rename "s/\.mat/\.vmt/")
Some shaders are still broken, but the majority work now

This means we can test maps without having to jailbreak the original client!
