Eventually, we (you and me) shall have to migrate to Win10. Not that I 
enjoy that. I'll stick to Win7 as long as I can.

To do the former, you can use the good old functions provided by Poseray:

#macro pigment_multiply(p1,p2)
//multiplies two pigments
#local PR1 = function {pigment{p1}}
#local PR2 = function {pigment{p2}}
#local PR_FRed=function (x,y,z) {PR1(x,y,z).red*PR2(x,y,z).red}
#local PR_FGrn=function (x,y,z) {PR1(x,y,z).green*PR2(x,y,z).green}
#local PR_FBlu=function (x,y,z) {PR1(x,y,z).blue*PR2(x,y,z).blue}
average pigment_map{
     [function{PR_FRed(x,y,z)} color_map{[0 rgb 0][1 rgb <1,0,0>*3]}]
     [function{PR_FGrn(x,y,z)} color_map{[0 rgb 0][1 rgb <0,1,0>*3]}]
     [function{PR_FBlu(x,y,z)} color_map{[0 rgb 0][1 rgb <0,0,1>*3]}]
   }
#end

Then use that in the material file. e.g:

material {
   texture {
     uv_mapping
     pigment {pigment_multiply(p_shalwar, pigment{color srgb 
<1.00,0.67,0.00> }) }
     finish {diffuse 0.8}
   }
}



[watch out for the line feed above]
