 Hi, I'm having trouble getting volumetric lighting with fog to work. Lighting with spotlight Volumetric is on the render Icon for volumetric is on and I tried both advanced and simple. Using TS 6.5 but I have 7 and 6.6 on a dual amd 1gig ram ,Radeon 9600. Any info on this?

What happens when you render...do you get blackness, or a clear render but no visible fog?

Try using just volumetrics- it will create 'fog' on it's own.
Using fog+volumetrics is redundant. (see also: redundant)
Check out Stan's page on volumetrics. (http://www.stansight.com/3Dvolumetrics.html)

 I managed to get Advanced Volumetric to work in Ver 7.1 but simple Volumetrics isn't working. Just and update Scott

Stick to Advanced Volumetric, then. You have more options and they're faster than Simple Volumetric.
