Mr. C's N64 Textures

[Mr. C]

Ah, yes. I've encountered this many times with several games. Many textures that blend into a certain color are colorless and are made to blend into whatever color the character or underlying texture is. The texture was likely put over a smooth, brown ReDead to make a rugged effect.

For example, I ripped the textures from the Rainbow Cloud level in Pokemon Snap. All of the constellations and the cloud itself were textures, but they were the same kind of pale, gray color that ReDead texture is. In the game, they fade into several color hues with bright, vibrant colors. I also saw this with the Jellyfish in Yoshi's Story. There is nothing wrong with the texture you ripped. It's just meant to blend with its backgrounds. It's perfectly fine.

Textures like those can also be shifted into another color, and not be put over a texture at all, such as the Jellyfish.
