    Sorry to bug you but for some reason when I tried to start up XNB Node it loads for a moment then closes for no reason, I even tried to re-downloading it but it happened again. Not even trying XNB Extract doesn't work. I have Windows 10(I had Windows 7 before but that was before having to get a new laptop) & I'm not sure if that's the problem or not. Sorry if I'm wasting someone's time or this was already asked or something.

    Nevermind found XNB Node Master & that works.>_>;

      xnb-node is a console application, you need to open the console and run it through that, there should be instructions on *the google* you can follow.

          I'm a bit confused. I have multiple craftable.xnbs I'm trying to combine they try to replace each other when put together in a folder for extraction how can I stop this? If I rename them to stop them trying to replace each other will I just be able to change the name back to the original name to get it to work again?

              Thank you so much! One more question I finished editing in gimp but now gimp has turned it into an xfb file. How do I change this back into a .png?

                you need to export it, not save it, it's wierd....
                and you want to uncheck the option for 'save background colors'

                        I also faced the .png bug when using XNB Node. I tried to export certain pngs using XNB Node 0.2.1.7. today (for the new SV 1.6 version), and it did result in some problems for me:
                        [​IMG]
                        Using XNB Node 0.2.2 (as suggested in the first post now) solved the issue.
