Introduction and a few possibly nooby questions about the engine.

In a shader_model, the diffuse alpha controls transparency and the shader uses a multipurpose map with channels: green=self-illumination, blue=specular, and alpha=colour change (ie team colour). Ignore the key in the shader for multipurpose maps, I believe that's what they used for xbox.

I thought red was specular, and blue had something to do with the detail map?
