Hi there, I'm testing the demo version, and when I'm trying to apply a texture into an object the texture looks good, but not the colors, it looks as desaturated texture, or gray, any idea why this happens? is it because the demo version?

It depends on how you load an image;

* image -> RGB
* floatimage -> grayscale
* alphaimage -> A channel as grayscale

So, if you load a color image as floatimage, it will be grayscale.
