I'm not posting a file with this, I'd just like some help, since
this is a Tutorials group. I've posted my first semi-gratifying image
on the binaries.images group, so if you want to take a look at it, it's
there....
Anywho, my question is.... could someone explain to me a little but
more about halos? I have MoRay, and I've looked through the POV docs,
and I'm never getting the results I'm after. In my image, I have two
cones, a spotlight focused on each. I'd like to get a dust-like effect,
or something of that sort, coming from the spotlight, so that it looks
sort of like a streetlight shining on the cones... or like sunshine
coming in from a dusty window... that sort of effect. Is there anyway I
can do this? I'm trying what I 'know' how to do, but, obviously, that
isn't much. What's the easiest way to do this?
Many thanks for your help,
~Dana

Have you read section 4.10.4 The Atmosphere in the docs?
Atmosphere is pretty slow to render and so a bit of a pain to get right
but the examples in the docs can be pasted straight into your scene as a
starting point.
Cheers, PoD.
