Hey everyone,

I'm working on a map (i'm sure you know what it is) and I'm trying to get a self-ilum bitmap working. The map is highlighting, but it is not bright enough. I don't know much about these special types of bitmaps, so does anyone know by chance how to amplify the brightness of these bitmaps? Thank you in advance for your help.

Here's a screencap of my settings:

Is there not a power value near the top of the shader?

Yes there is, but it's a shader enviroment. Does that setting control the power of the self-illum, or what else does that power button do?

The power value controls the strength of the emitted light from the shader for lightmaps. It has no effect on the illumination map.
