.MAT textures - TeridaxXD001 - 01-12-2016

I was trying to extract models from the game Star Wars: DroidWorks, and the textures are in the .MAT format. The game uses the Sith engine, and the models and textures are the same format as the game Star Ware: Jedi Knight - Dark Forces II. The latter game has had a modding community in the past, so several tools have been made. I tried a couple of tools that convert the MATs into BMPs, but I don't really know how to use them. The resulting BMPs look like this:

   

How do I get the clear texture? The tools can be found here:

Wild guess, but is the alpha channel possibly on in this image? I probably have no clue what I'm saying, but that's what I think the issue is?

It seems that .cmp files are supposed to contain the palette, without it it's given a junk palette. There should be some .cmps near the .mat files.

I had a feeling that's what it was. Thanks.
