As said in the subject, how can I create light emission for particles? Maybe I didn't use correct search words but I wasn't able to find anything on the subject.
I've tried instancing a sphere with point light set as a child but that doesn't seem to do the trick. What I would like to do is get some kind of a glow effect on particles.

Re: Light emitting particles?
You might want to check out the help docs on the 'FXTREE', there is a 'GLOW' in there, and from the sound of it, it might be just what you need... (caps = search keywords)
