This entire pack is looking fantastic.  It will be amazing to finally get to play it  :D.  I can't help but stare at the Delta Flyer.  She's just so dang pretty.

Essentially a faked "deferred lighting" system.

Yeah its a separate texture which we name "_LM" that holds all of the glows, so the normal texture does not need an alpha channel.


Cheers guys glad you like it ;)

And what is the advantage of using the LM texture over having the alpha channel?

simple answer... it's a better way to show off glows.

that reminds me, i gotta finish writing down the directions for that technique.  I screwed up on my kitbash, and that's the only way to get glows on to it.

btw, how big is this pack, so far?

Okay, what's the long answer?  What's better about the glows?  Does it have to do with performance, or the actual glow itself?

Pity you can't make the fire animated, so that it looks like it's constantly burning :P
