There apparently some lightmaps issue on Manaan East Central manm26ae, particularly around the Visitor's Hotel entrance.

As we can see; there shouldn't be any reason for any green tinted lights around the area. Perhaps to neutralize the lightmaps tone would be the best solution?
More details about the area model and related lightmaps haven't been documented, though I'm looking to sort this out soon as possible.

Update: the related model for the area is m26ae_06a, and the two relevant lightmaps are -

m26ae_06a_lm0
m26ae_06a_lm3

Update2: a result of trying to fix the lightmaps by altering the green-tint on the texture. They're far from adequate, but can say an improvement from the former -
VH_LM_Fix_2ndAttempt
As seen with the bottom image; there's a transition which I can't seem to have it resolved. Also the ceiling got affected too - not a favorable change to be honest.
Though, attached TGAs of aforementioned LMs - could perhaps come in handy:

Edit: with further looks it seem what had been done by me was nowhere near from a fix, instead it 'caused another problems. Perhaps the lightmaps could probably enough as-is, unchanged. Any further action on this uncertain issue would be much appreciated.

Update3: got it! Apparently using TPC format for the lightmaps wasn't the best move in the first place, lol. The lightmaps should be in its native TGA format. I use the same texture map with the TPC and we could see the difference between them. Well, I was going with the TPC for efficiency...
