Custom Emissive Example

This is an example of how to use the new custom emissives in SE 01.129.
For more details, see: http://forums.keenswh.com/threads/custom-entity-emissives.7382350/

To use emissives:
1) Model as usual in any editor, and create emissive textures with any name you want (You can use Emissive, Emissive0, etc... if you want, but you don't have to).
2) In ModAPI, call IMyEntity.SetEmissiveParts("NameOfEmissiveTexture", Color, brightness);

This also works with stock emissives! It also works with everything! Blocks, floating entities, and should work for weapons and the character too!

Code doc:
void SetEmissiveParts(string emissiveName, VRageMath.Color emissivePartColor, float emissivity)
Member of VRage.ModAPI.IMyEntity

Summary:
Sets the emissive value of a specific emissive material on entity.

Parameters:
emissiveName: The name of the emissive material (ie. "Emissive0")
emissivity: Level of emissivity (0 is off, 1 is full brightness)
emissivePartColor: Color to emit
