If the flag is enabled but volumetrics are still leaking, then you might have too many dynamic shadows updating at once. See [clustered troubleshooting page](/lighting/clustered/troubleshooting) for more information related to the issue. +### "The volumetrics are just a bright white sphere on the light!" + +* Volumetric lighting uses either the 50-0% distances or the Linear-Quadratic-Constant falloff to detrimine the length and size of volumetrics. Either of these needs to be set, but it's recommended you use the former for better control over the light. If you need some example settings, check out the [clustered quick start guide](/lighting/clustered/quick_start). + ### "My volumetrics are broken and corrupt!" * Certain AMD GPU models are known to have trouble running the clustered renderer, and since volumetrics are shadow dependant, this issue relates to them as well. **If you experience this, let us know what GPU brand/model, operating system and other hardware specs you're using.** Clustered lights may also act weird when running the game on Linux under DXVK, however the circumstances in which they break should not be possible in production.
