If your refering to the one in the TLK, you just need to make a new Datablock (look at GlowDecal projector in SgExampiles.cs), swap out the texture and point it at your shape , but i do think it only works on terrains and DIF's.

datablock DecalData(GlowDecal)
{
   sizeX       = 5;
   sizeY       = 5;
   textureName = "starter.fps/data/Particles/Shadow";
   SelfIlluminated = true;
   LifeSpan = 1000000000;
};
