Particles are someone you started this job with, ocean waves are your deskmate, clouds are your boss, moths flying around are your best man.

I hope you enjoy it! 🧡

Intersecting heterogeneous volumes with multiscatter + exponential high analytical + mesh lights is hard. Now it's 30-40 percent faster for such scenes (more bounces more performance gain)
