Change the sword bitmaps in mainmenu.map or shared.map. Or make the bitmaps internal. just change the hue to green when you get them in photo shop.

No, best, go to the model of the sword, and change all the shaders (NOT handel) to the support_high/flak_projectil/illum or something like that

Well in mp, unless you inject it there is no flak_cannon, and you wont get the static in the sword if you swap shaders, you can do it eiher way(I guess you could shader swap if you wanted to cut corners)

You guys know any shader that's glowing white? I think it would be cooler to have a white glowing sword.

is it possible to load several colours of swords into one mod? because that could create some very cool lightsaber-type battles

Oh I misread the post, I thought it was flak_cannon_illum but it still looks nicer with a new bitmap
