It's not an optimal solution, but not that bad either: Save as .3ds
and use utils/Modeller/3dconvert to convert to .ac. If you write a
simple Makefile, you can do conversion and postprocessing of the .ac
file (adjusting emission etc.) quite easily. For example:

convert: foo.3ds
        3dconvert foo.3ds foo.ac
        perl -p -i -e \
                's,^(MATERIAL.*emissivethingie.*emis)\s+(\S+\s+\S+\s+\S+),\1 1 1 1,' \
                foo.ac
