Hey all.

Is it possible to feed a noise texture into the "Scattering" input of the "Scaterring Medium" tag? I was hoping to create something like the attached image but with different shapes. I can achieve something similar in Cycles4D but can't seem to get it working in Octane. Any ideas?

Hi Chris,
you cannot use shaders in the medium node, but you can generate the volume with noise or other shaders, have a look at this example as a starting point: ciao Beppe

Thanks bepeg4d!

I figured that would be the case. Your example is great but it's not quite what I needed as I was hoping to apply the effect to various models, not just a cube or sphere. Oh well, onwards and upwards!

It makes me wonder what you would get if you plug your models parameters into the size fields instead of those like a cube.
