You don't need to have any third party renderer to do glowing neon effects. The standard 'raytracer' or 'Mental Ray' from 3ds max can create the effects.

Here is a test render I did, only took 24 secs to render (Duo Core, with 4G ram) A very simple set up which takes only about 5 mins.

You can download the attached scene (3ds max 2008) and replace it with your car and neon. (I have not include any texture maps in the zip)

Hope that will help you

Yea it will. But i have 3ds Max 7 and i need a better pc this one is crap it takes awile to render. But Thanks

Quote from beefyman666 :

Your render is halfway done, check back in about 10 minutes.

Edit: It's just finished. 1280x1024.



I've done one for you aswell, again at 1280x1024.

How did it die?

Quote from tristancliffe :

A lot of programs can use self-illumination - i.e. a solid can emit light. You'll also want to use volumetric lights if possible to give the impression of dust in the air illuminating, and looking more real.

But lighting in renders is a HUGE and complex topic, so you'll just have to try lots and lots and lots. Nothing better than experimenting over and over again. Apart from reading a book on the subject (but that won't stop you from needing to experiment over and over again).

Thanks thats helpful.
