I read the "Train Sim World Add-On Guide & Acronyms" and as per the description, it look like BPE and SMH will not support volumetric fog even though these routes were upgraded to TSW3 lighting and volumetric cloud standard. source: Train Sim World Add-On Guide & Acronyms : Dovetail Support (freshdesk.com)
I suspect that might be a mistake, made because those routes were originally released before TOD-4 and the author didn't take the upgrade into account.
That’s surely wrong or outdated because even Dresden-Riesa, which is getting upgraded to TSW4 standard, is listed as an “old” green route.
