Planetary Bloom?

by Mike Kuklinski · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 11/18/2005 (8:58 am) · 2 replies

I have been trying to figure out how to get planetary bloom working, but I have no idea where to start.

example

Basically, it causes the edge of the planet to glow with the intensity of light hitting it. I am not sure how to do that, and mask the parts inside the planet that glow.

Any ideas?

Look at the Nvidia sdk examples, I'm sure I saw the bloom effect in there. I'm needing the same thing and will probrally make it a resource when I'm done.

I think it's a seperate image.
