Cycles Volumetrics

Based on the original patch by storm, with cleanup and improvements by Stuart Broadfoot and myself.

The Code is in this branch: https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/branches/soc-2013-dingto/

Example renders: http://blender.dingto.org/volume/

Getting started

  • Start Blender, switch to Cycles and enable "Volumetrics" in the Render Tab.
  • Basic shader setup: "Transparent" BSDF for the Surface output, and an "Isotropic Volume" node for the Volume output.
  • Works for Objects and the World.
  • To toggle between Homogenous and Inhomogenous, there is a "Homogenous" checkbox in the Material/World "Volume" panels.
