Sparkling lights

[edison]

Hello,

I tried to search forum about this, but didn't find. So, very simple question. How to make sparkling lights in v-ray, like in example I attached? Thank you!!!

My best thought would be to use small emmisive materials for the lights and then add sparkle in post-production.

Yep. This is done in Photoshop. There are a number of tutorials onlione how to accomplish this.

If you like, you can use this PNG file, just copy it into PS, lay it on top of your render, change the blending mode to screen, and play with the brightness and opacity of this layer to adjust its effect.

There is a V-Ray Lens Effect that will be added in the next release that will do this as well.
