  Volumetric Light

  Posted by Kevin Cook on December 3, 2010 at 1:58 am

  I’m trying to get my volumetric lights to not have a pointy beginning point, if that makes any sense? Similar to what Lux does with the start distance.

  Such as; I have a light object with a volumetric light attached to it. The cone of the light starts at a point and I’d like it to start say 20% up the cone? I tried bringing the light back into the object but as soon as I do that, it completely obscures the light.

  in the light’s Details tab set the Near Clip From and To values to something greater than zero and close together (or the same)
