Hi Alain,

Thanks for those tips. However I already did try all textures of 
stone*.inc but bothing looks like limestone.
But you're right, I'll try to get one from someone close from it then 
customize it.
My idea is to get a stone aspect like regular cut-stone, as for ancient 
buildings...
I'll try again...

Thanks,

ALeX
