Another glow hint - I found this one yesterday in the forum somewhere and found it to be extremely good:

When you use the TV3D-Glow, things can get too bright very quickly. So, before actually drawing the glow to the screen, use TV3D's 2Dimmediate.DrawFilledBox to draw a BLACK transparent box on the whole screen. The color should be something like this: r=0,g=0,b=0,a=0.5. THEN you draw the glow to the screen.

I used it in my current test project and it just ROCKS.

Btw: The smaller the rendersurface, the bigger the glow halo. 64,64 is still a viable choice, though you will see the rough-resolution-effect a little. Looks exactly like the glow of Tron2.0, that one also had this pixel-jumpiness in the background.

Or you can just set the glow parameters to your likings.

That is not the same. If you do as I described, you can use glow with a strength of 1 (first parameter) without the bright colors washing out.

If you just reduce the glow power so that the colors do not wash out, the glow is significantly weaker.
