Ok i think that the deal is that a mat file is accually 3 files, each one smaller than the last. the large one shows up when ur close, the smaller ones when ur farther away. I of course dont know this for a fact im just saying this. Anyway I had a problem similar, with cmp files, but with this, extract the mat and run it through matmaster. 3 new BMP files will pop up. Open each one and check for little blue dots. If there are pick up a color from the area nerby and paint over the dots. Then change those back to Mats, using matmaster, and bingo yer set.
