need help with Pro Materials ...

Glowing Techno Script has presented me with a seemingly lack of controls . In that , I am unable to alter much less create a original color or script . Yes , I insist on using it , just not sure how to modify it .

Hi.

This material is completely driven from the Ambient channel.
First thing to do is to set your Global Ambient colour to white.
The Global Ambient is set via the Sky & Fog tab at the top of the GUI.
It's the second one along underneath the little picture of the hill that controls Shadow Intensity.
Command & Click on the colour bar beneath that picture and you will get a colour mixer... Set it to white.

Create a 2D square or disc and apply the material and you should have it showing up.

Some other things that I find help with this one is to go into the Material Lab (with the object selected click the [M] button in it's little floating menu) and set specular to 0. It can also help to set Refraction to 100 so that the script plane doesn't distort what it's in front of.

To change the colour of the script you will need to venture into the Deep Texture Editor, I can give you details of how to do this if you need this (see example below).

Hope this helps.
