In this Unreal Tips & Tricks video, we explore how to create the atmospheric sunbeams known as God rays that only occur when conditions are just right. Learn different techniques to achieve this effect, including using geometry and grayscale materials, using light shafts on directional lights, and finally using volumetric fog to create physically accurate God rays. For additional help, see the documentation: https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/Engine/Rendering/LightingAndShadows/VolumetricFog/index.html
