Question by jason0202 · Feb 15, 2012 at 06:43 AM · guilightglowguiboxguielement

Glowing/Neon Effect for GUI.Box

Hi all,

I'm wonder is there any tweaks or scripts out there would make GUI.Box of any GUI elements to seem like glowing just like t$$anonymous$$s:

T$$anonymous$$s picture looks to me like a actual 3D object on top of w$$anonymous$$ch is applyed Image Effect Bloom and Flares. You may try reproduce t$$anonymous$$s by using 3D Text component and tweak material that it interact with t$$anonymous$$s post (Pro only) effect.

Trough baking this effect into texture and showing that. Or make effect separate texture and place it in a way that it creates illusion of this. This way you can have full control over it trough animation of rotation, position and sacale.

@cupsster thanks for your reply again. But unfortunately it seems abit difficult to me as I'm just know how to program but not in texture design...

Is there any recommended links that provide this kind of free texture library for download? Thanks

In Potoshop glow around text you can reproduce with "Outside Glow" and horizontal ines can be hone with transparent gradient. Google this terms. Gimp is also good free alternative. When you satisfyed with answer mark it as answered. :)http://lmgt4u.com/?q=Glow+Effect+Photoshop+tutorial & http://www.photoshoproadmap.com/Photoshop-tutorials/Special-effects/Most-popular/1/
