No? I've not only made a "non" with the FakeShad.dds file, but I can make real glowing running lights off of the base with the new DetailsIllum file...
I don't know how you're managing it. I've tried adding a green FakeShad.dds to an existing car zip and even tried repacking but the shadow still came out black
... this .dds editing is so awkward compared to TM1... I wonder why they changed it

u have to edit your DiffuseIllum.dds Aplha Channel, all white area is no light, gray areas are stationary light and black is light with brakes, so u should stay the diffuseillum.dds as it is to prevent that "glowing"
