Default Stained Glass Recolours of "Light Pane" Window?
St Simeon's, the parish church of Veronaville makes extensive use of the tall "Light Pane" base game window:


At present the windows all have clear glass, which allows lots of light to stream into the church, and gives views of the hills and trees outside. But the congregation and priest feel it would be nice to have stained glass in some of the windows.

So my query is, Does anyone know if anyone has made stained glass recolours of the "Light Pane" windows? If the answer is No can anyone point me to a tutorial on recolouring plain glass windows to stained glass?

I can only find solid tint recolours of those particular windows:
https://modthesims.info/d/87148

Those are recoloured by changing the TXMT to show the colour you desire (dark yellow in this particular one I looked at- you can either put in an RGB number or click the dropdown to choose from palette):


For the other double height windows I found a few:

These are made by adding a transparent texture:


So perhaps you could find an image that you like to add to the Light Pane windows, to make your own?

@AndrewGloria
I was curious too, since I'm working on some church items, and in trying to make a recolor for the light pane window, it looks like (as the ones simsample found) the only way to recolor this window currently is to change the color of the glass, as there is no TXTR resource for the glass in the package (I also took a look just now at the window itself, and it too doesn't have a separate texture for the glass).

I...kinda don't like that....I'm beginning to get thoughts of what to do for this....

(So don't be sad AndrewGloria, there is a reason why you're not seeing what you want)

EDIT: I decided to take a further look into the package and meshes for the glass and...HOW IN THE HECK DOES THIS EVEN WORK?! I...I must be missing something, 'cause the GMDCs are weird...and...yeah, further work is needed (sorry for the random rant, you've piqued my interest @AndrewGloria)
