Plus, how can a built in thing, even be faulty?? It came with the download, how can it be messed up??
This is exactly the topic of a suggestion I submitted yesterday, but it apparently did not pass review. The suggestion was "Don't break the built-ins". I did an EDBR and afterwards I had a built-in invisible bogie go faulty that is common to a LOT of assets. It was exactly this issue, it was complaining about being .texture instead of .texture.txt. Easy fix with Images2TGA, and it was fine, but HUNDREDS of assets for which it is a dependency still showed faulty, so I had to double-click all of them to get them to recognize the fixed dependency. My suggestion was twofold: 1.) if you are going to make a change that affects built-ins, make it a warning instead of an error. These assets work fine without having to be fixed, so why make it an error that breaks a TON of dependents? Alternatively, fix all of the built-in and base assets to meet the new rules, don't break your own rules. And 2.) provide a mechanism whereby a fixed asset can automagically be recognized by all of its dependents without having to go double click hundreds of them.
Tried all of the above, any other suggestions?
1st off are we talking about <kuid:-3:10011> Diesel Fuel>. This is listed as a "Base" asset in TRS19 Build 110240. It's an old asset - TB2.0 and PEV image2tga program does open icon_texture.texture and creates icon_texture.texture.txt and icon_texture.tga. But when I try to submit the modified asset it says: "Not authorised to submit changes to asset <kuid:-3:10011>".If PEV's Images 2 TGA doesn't work, then that means the assets were built-ins or DLC from TANE. TANE built-ins have encrypted textures meaning they can't be repaired in the manner outlined above. Your only open then is to find a non-built-in version of he asset if possible.

I use "revert to original" and it's listed as Base and CM is happy again.
I got identical behavior in TANE SP4 Build 105766. I could open and modify with PEV image2tga but not submit.
Now for TRS19 SP3 behavior.
I used PEV image2tga on <kuid:-3:10011> in TRS19 SP3 Build 111951 just as described above, submitted the modified asset and CM accepted it and it's now listed as "Modified". When I open and revert to original it list it as Built-in. I though it was a Base asset but I can't go back and verify that now. In past versions it definitely was.

PS No complaints by the dependent assets they still see the same kuid and kind regardless.
