I have a model that I'm trying to convert for my personal install. This model has the base hull and the windows as separate parts of the model with separate textures. The base of the hull is showing up fine, but the windows texture has white-ish windows in front of a black background. What I want is for just the white windows to show up, and for them to glow, but I'm not sure what material suffixes I may need to accomplish this. I've tried a few mentioned in the A2 materials thread, but the ones I tried don't seem to work in A2, as far as I can tell. Does anyone know how to accomplish what I'm trying to do?

Nevermind, figured it out. I needed to use !noalpha for transparency and make emissive white for glow
