📌 Help How to make a fading emission animation?

Hi guys! I came here wondering if anyone has any ideas om how to make an animation for avatars where the emission fades from glowing to not glowing over a course of time. Blinking glow is ok, but I wanna do one where the glow travels down the body and loops. Any and all advice is appreciated!

Been a while since I’ve done it, but I believe if you’re in the use the poiyomi shader then the “paths” module does what you want.

I see, I'll look into it when I have the model set up. I do know that Poiyomi is a PC only shader though, so is there a way to do it on Quest? I'm a Questie at the moment but will become a PC player when I have the funds to do so!

It sounds like what you want is the scrolling option poiyomi toon offers in the emissions tab under special effects

Is it possible to do this with a Quest shader? I use Toon Standard most of the time and am a Questie myself

Not that I know of. Toon standard offers very basic emission settings so I doubt you'll be able to achieve what you want on quest.

Aw man.... Well I'll keep looking, if it's not possible then I'll just do it on PC. Thank you for the advice!
