Thank you,
but it still doesn't work.

I think the whole "pass P0" is wrong. It was made for
models and not for level textures.

Code:

---

bmap dot_3map = <dot_3.bmp>;

material dot_3
{

	skin3 = dot_3map;	

	effect
	"	texture entSkin1;	// block texture
		texture entSkin2;	// shadow texture
		dword mtlSkill1;	// a variable?
		texture mtlSkin3; 	// the bump map
				
		technique bump_dot3
			{
				pass P0
				{
					Texture[0] = <entSkin1>;
					Texture[1] = <entSkin2>;
					TextureFactor = <mtlSkill1>;

					ColorArg1[0] = Texture; // stage 0 = bumpmap
					ColorOp[0] = DotProduct3;
					ColorArg2[0] = TFactor;
					ColorArg1[1] = Texture; // stage 1 - skin texture
					ColorOp[1] = AddSigned;
					ColorArg2[1] = Current;
					ColorArg1[2] = Diffuse; // stage 2 - lighting
					ColorOp[2] = Modulate2x;
					ColorArg2[2] = Current;
				}
			}

	";
}
