I would assume, that replacing the HeroGlow**.blp textures, with a 100% transperant texture, will result in the removal of hero glow.

I tried it, (although I think my texture is botch and corrupted), and it didn't work.

So, is it possible to remove hero glow like that? And does anyone have a .blp texture suitable for this purpose, since every texture I touch seems to curl into a fetal position and die...

On a side note, could replacing the Team Color .blp files result in a custom team color?

I attached 2 different textures for you. The TeamGlowBlank.blp is full blank with nothing on it. The TeamGlowWhite.blp ist just white. I havent tried if iot works but probably you will. Just import them 16 times and path them ReplacebleTextures\TeamGlow\TeamGlow<number00-15>.blp

I cant get more than 1 attachment to work, so packed them into a .rar-file

p.s. if they dont work i can add alpha channel to them. usually that makes textures transparent ingame.

!ATTACHMENT REMOVED!

it should work anyway
alpha channel of hero glows are transparent
so converted blank png images should do the job
