Did you remove the functionality that the texture list used to have regarding replacing textures? Using the texture list you could replace a texture that is used multiple times in a material/s just by dragging and dropping it once. This saved SOOOOO much time and reduced alot of potential errors with complex materials. Please tell me that functionality has not been removed.

If it's still in there, where can I find it at, as I haven't been able to find it anywhere?

Are you looking for Material Editor > File > Textures List?

yes, that is exactly what i was looking for! Thanks for the help. Man, that's hidden in a very odd spot.

so it was always possible to replace a texture for the whole material/scene by dragging another one on it in the list?!?
I only tried to replace it directly with a new texture long time ago and that didn't work, so i gave up...

Yep, it sure is. This is another horribly non-obvious feature of maxwell that would be useful to many people, if they only knew it existed.

In the texture list window you drag and drop one texture onto another (within the texture list window) it will give the option of replacing the texture only in the selected material or in the whole scene.

Personally, I think this feature needs to be reworked to be more logical, visible and robust, but I can't complain too much. At least this feature exists, even in its basic implementation.
