Crepuscular rays

Another name for light rays, god rays, environment rays, you name it. Ever wonder if the artists in film could get them to actually render in real time? Well, my brother over at Coin App has taken some initiative with his company, and following what Kenny Mitchell from EA demonstrated, applied it to his game in progress. Head on over to his site to see how it looks for his up and coming game. There's also some nice video of SSAO and a teaser for the game, coming out when it's done.

The game space is pushing the envelope of real-time atmospherics and effects.
