The only way i get a slight ray effect is if i use Volume medium and set it to medium radius 100. but then everything behind the window goes grey and dark... Geez is it really this hard
to set up default values for people to get the most good looking result without few days of meddling in weird values?

I'm looking for this kinda efffect, this was rendered on Poser Firefly over 10 years ago...

Getting godrays with daylight environment is working, but you would need to crank up the sun power to immense values. Not very useful.

In the image in the link, I got it to work by using a box with a volumetric material and a high powered light emitter outside the window. The box fills the room and the emitter is outside of the box.

Thank you i didnt even know you could set up the material as volumetric one I'm gonna have to test that... You set up the diffuse as volumetric?

Actually, it was not with volumetric, but with scatter (7 years ago and volumetric did not exist in octane at that time).
Had to look up how i did it and this is the material I used for the box:



This was done with daylight (power 2)

I hope this works for you

I have no idea how you figured that out, but thank you! This is what i was trying to render!

Oh, btw when is vertex motion blur going to be introduced?

Not directly to the plugin. For vertex motion blur, export the animation to ORBX via the plugin and render in Octane Standalone.

Thanks
