    So the title kind of explained it.

    Looking to allow Emission to have a glow, just like ue4's emissive light material.

    Render effects is not really an option with VR (as far as I am aware).

    Any ideas welcome. This image illustrates what I had in mind:

    I solved this by using bloom post effect with a material that has an emission colour.
    Performance seem to be the same, but will test this out upon optimisation.

    If your like me an a little unfamiliar with the new post processing effects system then check this out:
