Hello
I don't own this set, but when looking at the building instructions (lego.com)
I've found 3 white plate 2X4:
1x step 3 page 8
1x step 7 page 8
1x step 11 page 23
Your instruction is not the same?

You say “plate,” OP says “brick.”
(I say tomato.)

This brick is needed for one of an alternate build showed on the back of the
box
It is not used in main build. Our definition says:
"Regular Items - Parts required to build the main model and any secondary
models plus any other parts on the official parts list. In the absence of
an official parts list, the official parts count, the instructions, and/or images
on the packaging are used to determine as closely as possible the contents of
this section. Refer to Additional Information About Regular Items for further
details."
So this brick stays in regular section. This request will be rejected.
Dzień dobry
Klocek 2x4 jest potrzeby do budowy alternatywnego modelu Nasza definicja
mówi, że w głównej sekcji inwentaryzacji są klocki potrzebne do budowy głównego
modelu i modeli alternatywnych. Ten jest użyty w modelu alternatywnym więc musi
zostać, pomimo że nie ma go w instrukcji głównego modelu. Poza tym tu jest pokazany
zamknięty woreczek nowego zestawu i ten klocek w nim jest http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=2655435
czyli występuje on w tym zestawie i nie zostanie usunięty z inwentaryzacji.
Pozdrawiam

I have no idea where this white brick goes when checking LEGO.com instruction.
I can't see it. But this white brick was confirmed in this set. Inventory
was checked by very trustworthy person from seald set content, and here is sealed
one, opened and build and this brick is clearly visible here in sealed bag:

We are talking about a format created in the 1990’s. Maybe you aren’t old enough
to remember how slow personal computers were at this time. I am 
Drawing a simple mesh of a couple hundreds triangles took minutes if not hours.
Drawing what shows on each frame in Studio (bricks, some faces hidden, shadows,
Phong lighting…) would have taken hours. Now Studio does it dozens of times
per second.
“Simple” was misleading. Sorry for that. I didn’t mean it was theoretically
complicated (most 2D/3D graphics algorithms are way older than LDraw), I meant
it was practically infeasible and useless.
Also:
1. vectorial patterns are lighter and often better than bitmaps, especially for
the patterns that appear(ed) on LEGO parts,
2. patterns weren’t quite as important when there were so many basic parts not
yet modelled,
3. and I’m sure there are other sensible reasons 
Now, yes, it’s debatable the LDraw Official Library took a bit too long to use
the texmap feature (AFAICT, the feature was added in 2012).
| | I can't believe anyone modelling 3D object would not use it... and regarding
Studio, as it use Unity, it wouldn't (ans shouldn't) be such a challenge,
|
I don’t know why Studio doesn’t implement texmaps. LDView and LDCad (among others)
do.
It’s true the official library didn’t use them but it does now (or will, as the
parts are still Unofficial for now).
I’m sure Studio will do too very soon.
| | except because of those parts from Ldraw.
|
Well, if it weren’t for LDraw, Studio wouldn’t have so many parts now.
So Studio is what it is now because of LDraw but also thanks to LDraw

U,V matching a point in the texture area which is basically a 2D tilled "world",

| In Stud.Io's instructions generator, it would be convenient if there were
a feature in the "Global Style" tab that allowed for an image to be posted in
the same scale on every page in the manual. I usually add a small logo in the
corner of each page, and this would make this extremely easier to do, rather
than pasting the image to each page and doing my best to manually put the logo
in the same spot on each page.
It would also be great if this option allowed us to select which pages were to
have the image on it/select pages that wouldn't have the image.
Thanks!

LDraw (the underlying format for parts in Studio) is an old format. It’s not
a bad thing but it explains why, at the time it was created, mapping images wasn’t
a priority or a simple thing.
So, yes, most patterns are “in the flesh” of the parts: they are coloured surfaces
amongst the parts’ surfaces.
BUT, there’s also a (somewhat recent) feature to use common image files (PNG…)
to be mapped on the parts surfaces. The LDraw official library (that Studio
uses, mostly) has started to add parts that use that feature.
Unfortunately, that feature is not (yet?) supported by Studio.
Note that there’s also “stickers” in LDraw: Parts that are only coloured surfaces
and that can be placed in front of any plane surface to add patterns (like real
stickers but not bendable).
Studio chose not to add them in its palettes but they should be usable as custom
parts.

For the record, I have looked a while back if there is any textures actually

converted into raw colour data of some kind, but I didn't dig too much into
this.

According to Summer (forum_admin on the dedicated forum for Studio: http://forum.bricklikn.com/
), and if I remember correctly (there are several highly awaited features), this
feature is in QA (testing) and will be released soon.

BrickLink has not had an official Catalog Admin since January 10.
Since then, the catalog overseer at BrickLink - Admin_Russell - has been filling
in for the duties when he can, but he has a lot of other stuff on his plate.
Until BrickLink gets a new Catalog Admin, the backlog will continue to grow.

Not sure how helpful this is, but the way I've always sorted Bionicle is
by face or mask. Most of the masks didn't appear in too many sets, so it'll
help you narrow down what you have there.
