can any one help me how can i make these type of lights

If you check out the AngryBots project, you will notice that they have created this effect using a simple plane with the image of the glow on it. I guess you coud make it always rotate on the lamp direction axis towards the camera using LookAt.

I think this would be a great solution since it costs less than a real light or any post processing effect. Only downside is that the material has to be see-through and therefore a lil heavy on the GPU.

but how does boot camp demo shows a glowing bulb ,when i enter the house i saw a bulb glowing in scene mode i saw it was just a simple lens flair how can i make like that

if you want lights to “glow” … select the light that you want to glow … and in the inspector view make sure that “Draw Halo” is checked

for pole lights i recommend using directional lights… combined with a light-cookie … to simulate the dirtiness on the light bulb, and to have better control of the “shape” of the light …

using a plane with the image of a glow on it may also be a pretty decent alternative for systems that aren’t very resourcefull
