How do u remake this "glow" effect in studio


Was playing realistic Hyper Realistic CSGO Guns and I noticed on some maps they have this glow effect on the guns, how would I remake this in studio

I’m having a hard time figuring out what you are talking about. I have a feeling you may be talking about EnvironmentSpecularScale.

Find more information about it here.

That’s not a glow effect… it’s specular diffusion which can be toned to your liking in the Lighting Instance. A value of 0.25-0.6 on both is usually really good and realistic.

im pretty sure that has something to do with the gun’s material, also it’s not a glow effect

it happens when lighting > environmentspecularscale is set to 1 and shiny/metallic surfaces reflect the skybox. if you use the default baseplate skybox, shiny/metallic surfaces will reflect the blue tint from that skybox.

so to replicate this effect, just use the same skybox.
