8.1.4.Sunshafts
Radiates sun shafts from the skybox at the position of the sun (or whichever directional light is the brightest).
This effect is a fast alternative to true volumetric lighting, and is often still used to enhance volumetric fog. Because it is a screen-space effect, sunshafts will only be visible when the sun is visible on screen.
If the Source mode is set to “Sky Luminance” Sunshafts radiate from highly emissive pixels, such as a skybox’s sun disk. This means it’s possible for other materials (in front of the skybox) to also radiate sunshafts.
