Neon glows effect
Author
Does anybody can give me a hint on how you create glowing effects such as neon sign ??Especially using shader
if you have DX SDK 9 in the Sample Browser under Direct 3D there is a program called EffectEdit. In it there is a glowing effect using a vertex shader.
I think he''s referring more to a soft-edge glow. The sort of thing called bloom in traditional photography.
I remember someone on here discussing one method using a quad overlaid on the screen with simple pixel shader gaussian blur on the pixels written to the quad''s texture. I have no idea how to go about implementing that, though.

An engineer from NVIDIA gave a talk on this at the DX Meltdown in Seattle this summer.
Here''s a link to a PDF of his slides:
