Unsure what you are trying to achieve here.....what object exhibits this light behavior?

Not sure if you'r trying to make the edges transparent, or everything but the edges transparent. Im sure a fall-off node plugged into the opacity could do something for you though.

Didn't you ask the same question about 2 months ago?
Would you maybe have a picture of what you're trying to achieve?

This is an example of what I mean, think these three objects as if they were a single object.

This needs to be done in post processing - using Nuke or Fusion. Render out the beauty pass and blur in Nuke/Fusion with the Opacity pass (in Octane 3).

With AE can do it without using octane 3 .. I wanted to know if with octane 2.x had to achieve the effect without postprocessing.
If i use falloff node are able to do something similar but unfortunately I apply transparency also at the center of the object ..
