well maybe its not that advanced, but I was wondering about something really weird, I have this mesh in 3ds max, and i was wondering if I could do any lighting useing the edges, like could I make the edges emit light onto the mesh? I thought it'd be kind of a cool idea to mess around with.

Have the actual edges of the mesh emit light? Like all the edges, (the things between two faces) or the actual edge of the mesh?
If you want the edges to emit light you could probably manage to do so with some creative texturing and a render to texture, or you could try to work something out with a shader, (it has a wireframe mode that I have yet to see many people fully utilize). -
I mean like edge, as in component mode edges.Comment

That would be more a texture/shader thing.Comment

hmm, do you mean like the wireframe thing? do you think you could point me to a tut or something?Comment
