Volumetric Transparency Gradient

[SamuelAB]

I'm trying to create a transparency effect that has a gradient sphere. Basically whatever elements are close to the inside of the sphere or an origin point/location/datum will be more opaque and get more transparent as they get further from the focal point until they disappear completely.

I see similar stuff being possible in C4D, but not sure about 3ds Max and Octane:

Any help is appreciated

In 2022.1 you can use the "Spherical field" texture and plug it in the Opacity.
The "falloff radius" will be your outside sphere and the "core radius" will be your inner, opaque sphere.

This is exactly what I wanted! thanks a lot!
Can't wait for this to make it's way into 3ds Max
