      How would you render just the glow of a ship in Strata 3Dbase 3.0.2?

    • 1. Cover the main part of the ship with a texture(if you have multiple textures its the same).
      2. Have your Glow objects, give then a fog with over 100%. Maybe an Aura if you like it. Group with main object. Then turn the fog and Aura to 0%, then render your ship spinning.

      3. Then go back to the main textures you have, turn their color to black, gloss and glow to 0%.

      4. Go to your glow fog and turn it back up to 100%, then your aura. Render agian.
