How would you make a neon part glow within another part?

[Sb0bster]

What’s the issue?
I’m trying to make a part glow within another part, however, when I try to do this, it does not work. As soon as I put the neon part within a different part (with its transparency set to less than 1) it doesn’t emit the glowing effect that I need.

Visual example:

The part is glowing when it’s not in the other sphere.

The part stops glowing when it’s placed in the other sphere. How would you make it so it still glows while being in the other part.

Thank you, any help is appreciated.

I am not sure, but maybe you could achieve a similar effect with a BillboardGui with a simple blurred circle texture on it?

What you want to do may be impossible without workarounds, and may be just how Roblox’s rendering engine works.

Try changing the material of the larger sphere… maybe try glass?

The best way to achieve this effect is by recreating the spherical shape on Blender and inverting its faces.

It is sadly not possible without anything like blender, even PointLight doesn’t
work, so blender is your best option.
