Hello dear, together with greeting you, I ask you how to apply the glow effect to an GLB material that I have, I have tried but I cannot do it.
I want to use the same effect that the lightsaber has
When the model features glow, it is automatically applied and rendered: you do not have to do anything.
In this screenshot I only had to move and rotate the lightsaber to place it in the hand of Bix.
The glow effect can be fine tuned with the glow props of the camera layer:

thanks michiel,
What I need to do is assign the glow effect to a model that I already have created.
While I'm using the Bluff effect
C:\Program Files\Outerspace Software\BluffTitler\Media\Effects\System\Glow.cfx
but is not the same

Best way is to add glow to the model in your 3D modelling app. To find out how that works, post your question in the forum of your 3D modelling app.
In BluffTitler you can apply glow to the whole layer (not only model layers) by marking the GLOW checkbox in the LAYER > ACTIVE LAYER PROPERTIES... dialog.
Oh, and the effects in the Effects\System folder are only meant for internal use or for debugging. Maybe we should hide this folder to prevent confusion.

Thank you dear Michiel for your answer, I will ask the question in this case in a Blender forum, best regards

This is what I did:
Duplicate the model layer. Change the color of one of the layers. Then on that same layer select SUBMODEL and use the top slider to choose the part of the model you want to glow. Then choose what color you want. In my example the dancer's clothes are completely white but I selected the shoes to be yellow.

Aerofilms30s, your model can't glow because it's fully black
To fix this I applied a white texture: choose MEDIA > CHANGE TEXTURE... and select Textures\White.png from the installer.
After that I marked the GLOW checkbox in the LAYER > ACTIVE LAYER PROPERTIES... dialog.
Then I made the glow green with the GLOW COLOUR prop of the camera layer.
I fine-tuned the effect with the GLOW INTENSITY and GLOW RANGE props of the camera layer.
Yes this works, but it's easier to add glow to your model in the 3D modelling tool. This way it glows out of the box without having to use all these tricks.
