Not at all ! There is an emissive halo texture painted on a square model (+ "Look at" controller attached), in addition of the lantern object (with an emissive plain color texture).

Not visible throw objects, but the problem is that the halo is 3 times bigger than the lantern.

1. opened lantern object in wings
2. duplicated it
3. combined together
4. exported twice (the second with same name + "-uv2")
5. copied the 3 nodes from harbours_kit.dat (with ctrl + C)
6. changed all id
7. imported both model at same time
8. both textures linked to this model
9. imported new textures : day texture which is dark green, and light green for night light. This second texture never appears at night or day.
