This lists all the common textures in CoD and what they do. If there are more commons in Graydiant please let me know, since I haven't (yet?) installed Graydiant.It's not complete yet, so if you've got something to add, please feel free to PM it to me and I'll add it. Do NOT post comments like "good job" in the tread please.
Thanks to Tank, the person who originally started this a long time ago, and thanks to whoever replied to his post back then. And thanks to qrz.
