Important

• When repacking custom textures remember to also repack all .pftxs files that contain the changed files with the GzsTool
• Fox Engine uses the pixel format DXT1 for textures without alpha channel and DXT5 for textures with alpha channel. Changing the pixel format could lead to unexpected results.
• Fox Engine 2015 (MGSV) doesn't support embedding .ftexs files inside .ftex files.
