MyGamepedia (talk | contribs) (Godrays isn't volumetric lighting, They are visually similar, but incredibly different in behavior and usage. Would be amazing beetwen to see real volumetric lighting, since godrays suck because of leaks.) |

Volumetric lighting, also known shorthand as "God rays", is a lighting technique meant to simulate light bouncing off fog or dust particles in the air, such as a warehouse or foggy beach. It makes the player see beams of light shining from the sun or other light sources. Currently, the only 
Valve-made software running on 
Source that supports Volumetric Lighting is 
Source Filmmaker, however some third-party engines incorporate volumetric lighting into env_projectedtexture. If the game you are making maps for doesn't support volumetric lighting, you can use some workarounds seen here.
Most versions of 
Source 2 have support for Volumetric lighting by default
