…metric fog 4.6 has fixed the previously incorrect volumetric fog blending behavior. This has the side-effect of making bright volumetric fog look significantly brighter than before. To get a result similar to the previous look, the Volumetric Fog Energy property on Light3D nodes needs to be reduced significantly (often by a factor of 10, if not more).

Not cherry-pickable to
4.5, as this change will only be in 4.6.
