How to change glowmap timing on WCUSA traffic lights?

For those curious as well:

This works by animating a texture that is mapped to the light models.

The texture is animated so that RED shows up on one model, and GREEN shows up on another. As the texture is animated to "slide" from left to right

The texture will simply show one model mapped to the top half as red, and the other model mapped to the bottom half as green.

Here's a picture showing how the actual image is designed:





As you can see it starts off with a green bar and a red bar, then the green turns to yellow, then red, and the bottom goes from red to green. As that image is sliding from left to right the lights appear to change colour based on how the models were textured.

Long story short: If you want to change this, you would need to change this animation image to suit your needs. You could make the colours pink and puple and blue if you wanted. It's an elegant way to accomplish this, very simple to do and to change speed etc just change the animation properties on the material editor.
