Is there a way in LW to use just the glow effect and making the glow
object (single point polys for instant) invisible.

I tryed this, and the only way I could make the single point poly/partical
invisable was to set a high glow intensity, thus the glow center covered the
poly/partical.

Not the answer you were looking for, but it works for me.

But yes, being able to have a surface fully transparent and not effect the
glow settings would be great.

And as for that seperate glow settings for each surface.

And for that matter again, I still would like to have both objects and/or
surfaces to act as true light sources.

Try the surface fuzz shader if you have 5.0.... what are you trying to do?

maybe a high glow setting and a SMALL lense flair to cover the point

1. Glow problem...trying to glow in a glass jar

Why won't my glowing rod glow when I stick in in a glass tubing?

I have used Animated Glow, Super Glow, and the Glow plug in that ships.
When I remove the glass tube, it glows just fine...I know the problem,
but not the solution.

Please e-me a response.

Thanks,
Steve Martin
