RE: A Lighted VU Meter?

I've got the model nearly completed ... however, I cannot figure out how to put a small working light inside the Volume Meter.

 

If I put it in the model, the entire model lights up ... any help would be appreciated. Thanks ...

You could try adding some ambience to the part with the meter with the decal on it.

 

Also add some glow.

The usual way to add a light to a model is in the model window... right-click and select 'new->light'.

 

Then size it and place it where you need it. In your case, inside of the meter casing right?

 

Hope that helps.

 

 

Thank you MMZ, I tried that several times, couldn't get the effect I wanted, David's ideal was "spot on" & very simple to boot.

 

Peace
