Atmospheric Lighting: God Rays

Volumetric Lighting

The rendering technique that gives light volume, allowing players to "walk through" the beams.

Scattering

The physical process where light hits molecules or silvered dust particles, redirecting the light toward the viewer's eye.

Often referred to as Crepuscular Rays in meteorology, these are visible shafts of light appearing to radiate from a single point in the sky.
