This PR:

  1. changes the README slightly to remove a 4-year old notice
  2. improves the SSS masks.

Regarding the SSS masks, previously they were conservative and matched the whole piece. This is not performant and, under circumstances, can cause a piece to look different than the other pieces. To fix this, I used the PNG albedo texture from the original asset and segmented the actuals regions that should receive SSS. I then re-exported them as JPEGs with the same parameters (2048x2048, 85% quality, greyscale).

Example visualization as albedo color:
