Volumetric Light System - fast lights & fog for URP, HDRP & Built-in

Light beams, god rays and atmospheric fog without wrestling with post-processing stacks or paying for it in frame time. Add one component to any light and start tweaking. Done.

💡 MAIN FEATURES

One component, instant results: Works on spot, point and area lights. Scene-view handles let you shape range and angle directly in the viewport.

High performance: Lightweight Shader Graph based rendering, per-light mesh detail control (8–64 segments), change-aware updates that only touch the GPU when something actually changed. Built with mobile and VR in mind.

Runtime-ready (NEW): Spawn volumetric lights at runtime, instantiate them from prefabs, switch profiles on the fly.

Profiles: Share a look across dozens of lights and adjust it in one place, or override per light.

Animated fog & fading: Animated fog textures, custom fade gradients, intersection fade, camera distance fade, HDR colors, alpha & additive blending. Flicker/animation components included.

Full source & Shader Graphs included: easy to modify and extend.

🆕 NEW IN 2.2: Full runtime/build support · scene-view handles · mesh detail (LOD) setting · big performance pass · many fixes.

🧩 COMPATIBILITY

Built for Unity 6+, ships with legacy shader versions for older Unity releases. URP & HDRP (Unity 2020+), Built-in (Unity 2021+). Tested on PC, macOS, consoles, Android/iOS and VR.

Limitation: This system is built for speed, so it does not render volumetric shadows (that would cost the performance). If you need shadowed volumetrics, this isn't the right tool.
