Description

Volumetric Lighting

Adds a volume_cloud entity to your game. The entity can be spawned by going to
Entities->Volumetrics->Volume Cloud

Open the context menu (hold C) and right click on the effects halo to change its properties.

Please Note:

- I suggest using this with the GMod shadow setting set to High
- Turning on 'Environment Fog' makes normal point lights kind of work.. (as long as the bounding box is small)

- The volumetrics_quality console command will change the resolution of the lighting. Performance gets exponentially worse the higher the number. (If you are not an animator I suggest leaving this at 1)
1 = Low (1/64th resolution)
2 = Medium (1/16th resolution)
3 = High (1/4 resolution)
4 = Extreme (full resolution)

Recommended Addons:

CSM (Used in second image)
Advanced light entities

What's so odd for me, is that this causes my gmod to freeze, and it never did that before, and recently (last month of February) a week before Valentines day, it began to freeze gmod, a lot. And I thought... maybe it was too much addons once more... So I removed a lot of them, (Have this still installed) and yet... It still continuously giving me issues...

And also recently; I got my laptop's RAM replaced, and here I thought this would help... (More odd; my laptop isn't old...)
