Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: My antivirus says that this program is virus!
A: If your antivirus detects this program as trojan, you probably have McAfee, Comodo, eSafe or Prevx. They don't know anything about exe-optimization-by-hands and UPX. Therefore I recommend to change antivirus.
Q: What's all those BLP settings for?
A: Check butman_readme_eng.txt.

There seems to be a bug in the import function. Every time I use the import function it reports "no valid files to process" when there's obviously valid blp files in my destination folder.

Great tool but is the size limit in Reforged still 64x64? This tool does only support this button size. I thought maybe they had increased the button size limit?

The tool is useful/simple. It would be nicer if ReplaceableTextures/CommandButtonsDisable is display somewhere on the program
