I created a glowing sphere and parented it to the left hand in the first half of the video. In the second half all I did was unparent the sphere. Does any one know why such a differance in the glow effect.

The video above is in Divx 6 and about 350K
The Video below is in quicktime and about 4 MB

When the sphere is in close proximity to the hand or body you get some reflection from the figure. The glow is not that much different when it is away from the figure. It just isn't lighting up any part of the figure.

I am sorry I didn't make myself very clear I meant the glow of the sphere. The first half of the video the sphere's glow changes to the picture above. The Second half of the video the glow stays a constant glow

Ok , I misunderstood the question. How are you animating the glow. ?

I used the animation features in the material room to animate the glow.(Oh the wonders of nodes) I have the problem fixed now (the problem was the ball I created) I used the ball in Poser and it worked out fine. The ball I created when It was rotated, It would distort rather bad...hence the problem, so I ditched that ball.

Are you going to post a link to the final version?

Bobsaur: I am trying to create a new character, which seems to take the texture and transmaps I used better for some reason, when I get it done I will post the final animated version. Thanks for asking
