had another thought about glow stuff… cops comes with a prefix sum node which makes what graphics people call “summed area tables” that let you look up box filters of any size pretty much instantly, so you can add up tons of them and get something p smooth <:cat_zuul:354000291768696834> even 100 layers stays pretty fast
i love it when you make a glow that’s realistic enough you start squinting because it feels like looking through dirty glass
