God Rays Using Volumetric Fog | Tips & Tricks | Unreal Engine 

And a beautifully put together scene it is... :)

Matthew Doyle Thank you sir! 🤙

I spend an hour for that ! thank you!

enable volumetric fog in exponential fog settings

@@cgtechie i've done that.. after looking away from the light source all the rays disappear

@@badbud2330 also enable volume light from light source

@@badbud2330 check cast volume Shadow. Also I think it works with stationary or movable light modes only.

@@cgtechie there is no volume light option in directional light details, the cast volume shadow is checked and the light is stationary. (changing to movable does not make difference)

I have this same issue. Can't get light shafts no matter what I try...

Hi! Maybe it can be some of this things: First, check the configuration of your Bloom and Lens Flares in the PostProcessVolume. That affect the way of propagation of the sun. Second, maybe you have low values in the Volumetric Scattering Intensity in DirectionalLight and SkyLight. You can increase it at 4, 8, 16, 24... I hope I have helped. Regards 👋🏼

Also check the Material Blend Mode used on the object/s, if is set to *Translucent* neither shafts nor any type of ray will work for that mesh !

Same here.

Make the volume smaller. What's your GPU size? Do you raise the cache for rendering? The default is like 512 Mb

you could make a material to give the effect of thick fog and use it with a particle effect

If you look in the details panel near the top (when you have the directional light selected), you'll see the options such as: Affects World Casts Shadow Indirect Lighting Intensity Volumetric Scattering Intensity Below the last option, Volumetric Scattering Intensity, (and just above the Rendering category) you should see a little white arrow that points down. Click the arrow to expand more options, and you should see the Atmospheric / Fog Sun Light option. If it doesn't appear for you there, I don't know what could be causing it to disappear, unfortunately.

@@FrostbiteCinematics I have indeed clicked on the arrow to show the advanced options and it is nowhere to be found...

@@nethos Go in the Directional Light and go down to "Atmosphere and Cloud" tab, in UE 4.26 they have been moved there.

I AM AN EPIC HATER I ONLY SEE FROM MY LIMITED PERSPECTIVE DERP

SuWoopSparrow What is a good thing Epic has done besides Unreal Engine this decade?

@@mysterio1967 Grants for developers and users of all kinds? Forcing Steam to improve their platform? I don't like Fortnite, but at least they are using that money to do things to benefit the greater community. Mobile and other similar games don't take away from higher fidelity games, so if thats something that bothers you, you should rethink that.

SuWoopSparrow The Epic Games Store sucks. They spend more money on exclusives instead of making a good store.

@@mysterio1967 The store works fine? You don't make a solid store overnight. New features are being added. As a developer I'll take the benefits of an exclusive than luxury features anyday
