Light rays streaming through window - how?

hacsart

Yesterday I picked up the Classic Deco: Eclectic 1 pack by Jack Tomalin.. Wonderful bit of kit!. Looking at the promo images the render shows visible light rays streaming through the window and pooling on the floor. (volumetric lights?) I cant see nay way in Studio to do that...
any advise would be greatly appreciated..

TIA!

Sickleyeild has a Godrays product that uses transmapped cones I believe.

There are several ways to do that...including two that are included in Studio.

ShaderMixer can create a custom camera and/or surface shader to do this.

The easier way is to use UberVolume.

Another solution is to use something like this...

Or doing it in post with Photoshop/GIMP with a set of brushes like these or another technique....
