Hey guys! I’ve been following the really awesome tutorial series by Virtus Education, and throughout all his videos, he’s got a really cool lens flare effect enabled. How can I enable that in Unreal Engine? Where is the menu found? Here is a video that shows the lens flare: [Unreal Engine 4 Beginner Tutorial Series - #20 Emmisive Maps - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0dCCcaI2Rs) ---

It’s in the post processing settings. Put your volume on “Unbound” to make it cover the entire map and set all the settings you like: [Post Process Effects | Unreal Engine Documentation](https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/Engine/Rendering/PostProcessEffects/) ---
