Hmm, are you mixing it with colors like rgb 0? After some experimentation,
it looks like the usual interpolation of colors between additive and
non-additive colors doesn't work well (because of the trick the macro uses).
Try using only additive colors in your color map: if you need black, use
Additive_Blend(0,1,0)

You should be able to use a layered texture or pigment map as usual.
