Master chief Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 OK i have a object that glows which shines a near prefact circular glow onto the floor , i was wondering if there was any way to make that glow stretch across the floor with out modifying the item actually emitting the glow Quote
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted January 13, 2009 Hash Fellow Posted January 13, 2009 If your object doesn't move, the easiest way is to fake it by painting the floor to glow in any shape and color you want. I did that for this video. idl_150kbps.wmv At about 0:20 there's a "spaceship" with a ring of rectangular glowing lights on the floor. I just painted a blurry ambience map around the rectangles to make those parts appear to glow brightly. It was an animated map to make the flash on and off. Alternatively you could attach a kleig light with a mask to shine down from your object onto the floor. the mask will make the light any shape you want. Quote
