VRayScatterVolume on GPU/RTX

I'm not sure how that's supposed to help. The amount of voxels I'd need to use to get a good resolution shadows would be prohibitive I think. This should all be possible using shaders in spheres. Again, Corona can do it. I don't understand why we are so limited in Vray

this is the easiest way to do decent planetary atmosphere on VRay GPU. If you have better ideas I'm all ears.
it's just something CPU is better suited for.

Currently I'm just faking it. It at least renders relatively quick. Using something like a volume grid to get subpar results isn't worth the render time.

In the same vein though, it's crazy that I have to use alSurface to do the clouds. The other SSS implementations don't work well with opacity maps.
