Scattering for sun and fog effects in the plug-in

Hi,
I have made some nice effets with the volumetrics in Octane, but I don't know how I can do the same thing in the plug-in directly.
I just want to add a medium with absorption anjd scattering to my daylight environment light. Is it possible ?

You can either a) drag the Medium property from the Octane Environment onto the Schematic and add a Medium with SSS to it, or b) add a large cube which encapsulates the area of the fog to the scene and set it's material to a specular material with SSS (make sure the camera is outside the cube if you do it this way).
