Did anyone try to make nice light beams (instead of the solid volumetric light) using the volumetric light?
Can you share them ?

Thank you very much. It is very nice. It is nice idea to use multi light sources. I only tried the value of 1 before. The value 0.5 seems better. Thank you. Did you try to put a lattice or something in front of the light source to produce a multi beam effect? Thanks again, HimiCo.

No, I didn't do that. Check out runtime DNA. They have some P5 light gels that work really nice. Patterns of leaves, so it looks like light is filtering through a tree. In fact, you can attach any image to your lights in the material room for some cool effects.

Another cool thing to do is attach a movie file. I used this to shoot a movie from a movie projector onto a wall. The light beams move with the moving image. It is quite cool indeed! Cheers, Joe
