Adding glow effect

[zeromus88]

I'm making a mod related to throwing knives and I wanted to add a few glowing effects to the knives themselves. Basically, I'm asking how I'd do this. Similar to how the superheated saturnite fist glows red or the heated cosmic knife glows red. Any help would be appreciated :)

Ah, thanks. I figured it'd be using nifskope lol. I have other questions but this was something I wanted to get figured out immediately.

Along the same lines, I wanted to add an edited texture for some other knives. I got the glowing effect to work perfectly, but I can't seem to get any other sort of textures to stick to other knives. In particular, I wanted to add a sort of "spray paint" texture to a few knives, but when I follow most of the same steps for the glow map, the texture is just messed up on the knife. It just looks wavy and metallic, nothing at all what I'm going for. Any help would be appreciated.
