Lightsaber Cores

[Star Admiral]

I need some tips on an efficient way to change the color of a lightsaber's core color, say from white to blue or red. The color change appears all right, but it is not consistent from all angles. For example, at one angle, the red core is very visible, yet at another, it is almost completely white.

 

I've been editing only the color tgas. Should there be another file I need to change to get a consistent color change, or is it an issue with alpha channels?

I actually, did this myself! I took the tga files and put a white circle in the middle using paint and shift to make it a circle. I'll see if I can post a screen shot of the tga, and then a screenshot of the result in the game. As soon as I can figure out how to post a screenshot from my desktop?

Thanks for the help. You could always upload the screenshot to ImageShack and post a link to that page.
