I've been fiddling with it for the last couple days, and everything mostly seems right.  I did notice that when I use the lights.rad method, the texture doesn't self-illuminate.  So to have realistic-looking texture lights, I had to use both the lights.rad method and the $selfillum method.  Furthermore, if my alpha channel was pure white, my texture didn't self-illuminate.  Making a texture channel that had an rgb value of 253,253,253, however, did work.
