Feature #1279
Decoration -> Glow Definition
100%
Description
I think the glowing textures/flats should be set
using Decoration definitions. For example:
Decoration {
Flat = "SOMEFLAT";
Glow {
Height = 256;
Flags = ...;
}
}
The old RENDER_GLOWFLATS text string kludge is not a
very good solution now that we have DEDs for this
purpose.

Don't forget that it should also be possible to set the
glow's LightMap.

Quote Kaiser:
Maybe it could be possible to use linedef to set the glow
on either ceiling/floor and the tag on that linedef to set
the height. (like if that tag was 256, then the height is
256) And another linedef to set the color of that sector
again by tag value. and another line to set the brightness
of that glowing flat (and the flat itself rather than the
glow as well).

The new data reference system in XG could handle setting the
glow parameters to eg the tag, X/Y offsets.
Create an XG class for this purpose, including a bunch of
references.
Make the glows properties of plane/wall not textures so that
they can be made more dynamic.
A fullbright flag would be good too.
However, we would need to be able to declare them as
"default" settings linked as properties of a texture. When a
texture change occurs or level start the "default" settings
should be applied (unless told not to via other other means
(XG LineTypes).
