Default Adding a glow to custom eyes?
Is it possible to add a glow to custom eyes? All I've found is a reference to it being a lighting effect, but I don't know how to enable it.

The vampire eyes glow, I think, maybe check those, see how they do.

Yes, like vampire eyes. I have no idea how they are done.

It has something to do with the mesh shader. Clone the vampire eyes in TSRW (if you can) and then see what shader it uses.

I'm not finding it in TSRW. I looked under Makeup/Facial overlay and Accessories. Am I looking in the wrong places?

Almost 2yrs later, I've got Into The Future now and having fun making plumbdroids and cyborgs, but they're missing that one thing - glowing eyes.

I've made a small handful of custom eyes that are categorized as Full Face Makeup. Can I make those glow somehow? I've noticed some of the Into The Future accessories like bracelets and watches have a glow. Could a similar method be applied to custom eyes?
I think the eyes added onto plumbot heads also seem to have a glow. I've looked through the package file from ITF, but I'm not really seeing how glow is applied to something.

UPDATE: Found the answer. Need to use scripting to apply a visual override to the sim. I used the Werewolf override because that only affects eyes and not skin like the vampire override. The result: http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=532502.
