I am working on an Ashbringer attachment and I wanted to add a glow to the coin floating over the sword blade but I can't get it to work and I don't find any good tutorials :/ I just want a simple glow.

This is how it looks after I tried to add the glow:

This is how it should look:

As you can see the glow even ended up on a completely different place...

Okay It doesn't show the glow in-game :/
attachment.php

The glow is shown in Magos when I play "stand" animation so it's like the model is not playing its' "stand" animation in the game

attachment.php

Here you can see what I have typed in the Node- and Material edit:

Ye I thought so too and it makes me even more confused :( It really seems like its right but that the model doesn't somehow know that it supposed to call the stand animation in wich the glow exist :S I'm not skilled with modeling with particles so I don't really know what could be wrong :(

i think the particles might be a little too small to show ingame, thats what happened to mine when it was about your size, it was like 15 on all of them and it barely showed ingame when i was way up close, so that may be the problem, it might look silly in the modeleditor, but cahnces are its smaller in game.
