When I try to add Plasma II or III to a ship, some of the weapon barrel is black. It does have lighting applied though.

This is still a problem in the latest version.

To temporarily fix the problem I backed up S0_Plasma1.x and S0_Plasma2.x (in the Galciv2/Gfx/Models folder) and replaced them with copies of the S0_Plasma0.x model. As a result, Plasmas II and III look just like Plasma I in the game.

The same black non-texture shows up on the Korath Ion Beams.

Well I guess that's because they use the same models as Plasma.

Ah, thought they were just similar. Oops!

TotA 2.0 doesn't address this bug, bumped.

I've also discovered that Doom Rays use the same model as Plasma so they are affected by this too.
