Were can I find some tutorials about bloom in HL1 ? I mean I want to make the light to shine on the wall , for example.
If you know some tutorials about bloom please point me to it

btw, Whats a "bloom"

Is your name supposed to be ironic?

If by "bloom", you mean lights, then have a look at twhl's lighting tutorial at http://www.twhl.co.za/tutorial.php?id=51

If you mean the bloom effect (the extra brightness and glare effect), then maybe look at http://www.madabouthats.org/projects/cgshader

Is your name supposed to be ironic?

What do you mean ?

Thanks GrimReafer.

srry was talking to you...go one post lower

If you're aiming for non-coding version use the above link.
You can code the effect into your mod with a TRON tutorial at the Valve VERC

The second link that the TheGrimReafer looked quite good. Ofcourse it only requires a top end graphics card because you can only get the bloom effect into half-life by doing it in a really inefficient way.

There where two cool tron 2 glow tutorials on verc (I don't have the links), but one of them looked pretty lame and the other required you to add really complicated code.
