cheers :)

does anyone know if it is possible to have copper nacelle grills which glow blue?

so that when you do silent running the glow turns off leaving copper?

i tried it with the Nova Concept by using colored speculas but obviously thats not quite right.

there was a tutorial for something like deferred lighting or something on here a while ago, not sure if it survived the crash though, if anyone still has it it might be of use here in some way.

Looks superb, makes me want to finish off the valhalla so I can get it HP'd and release it, not that I have a way of testing it myself cuz the install is borked.
