What the fuck am I looking at.

ITS JUST PLUGGED INTO EMISSIVE?!

I have not a fucking clue what cursed magic they used to create this decal with only emission. Where the hell do I even start in trying to convert this?

I could create an alpha for it easily but I'd have to do that 60+ times because other materials use this same method.

I feel like someone is gonna say a combination of like 20 words and then I'll feel really stupid.
