Possible to change the color of a plasma grenade?

I'd like to change the blueish glow and explosion of a plasma grenade to yellow or red. I'm not sure where to begin. I've colored the plasma grenade bitmaps yellow, but I think the shaders need to be changed too. I opened up one of the ligh tags in entity but it didn't reveal anything useful (or much anything at all!). Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Hmm looks like it's impossible. Darn.

Try Turk's effect tutorial here.

Also this.

Please use the Search function, or use Google to search this site, which I prefer.

The majority of the blue glow comes from the effect, not from the bitmaps. You can try opening the Plasma Grenade up in the [EFFE] tag in dothalo, and simply changing some of the dependancies. You might be able to to create a cooler effect than just swapping the colour.
