glow maps 2004-04-05 - By Benjamin Huber
Back
this is probably a duh-question, but i haven't been able to figure this out on
my own...
i'm a recent maya switchover and i can't find anything similar to shader glow
from maya in xsi.
i tried the glow property, but that is applied to objects, and it seems that
there is no way to use it to only have certain areas of a surface glow, as
opposed to the whole object. is there a way to generate texture-based glows? or
do i have to generate separate geometry for the pieces of an object i want to
glow?
thanks,
-ben
