Atmosphere Effects (VRayArialPerspective) strength issue

I am having trouble with the VRayArialPerspective atmosphere effect element.

VRayArialPerspective is set to a distance of 15KM, which produces a good effect for the scene in terms of exterior renders from a distance.

The issue I am having is that when I set up an internal camera, the VRayArialPerspective effect is far too pronounced, and looks like the room is filled with fog.

I’ve attached 2 images, one internal, one external, to demonstrate the problem. The only change between the two is the camera location. All other render settings are kept the same (IR/LC, auto exposure etc).

Any thoughts as to what is going on here?

Using 3DsMax 2019, VRay NEXT 4.02.04.00004, Windows 10 etc





I tried to replicate that on a simple scene but failed.
Would you please open the scene bellow and see if it works as expected or not?

If it works fine would it be possible to attach stripped down version of your scene?
