    I am trying to change fog color smoohtly but it just changes like in jumps of different colors, it goes to a green color, then to a reddish color, and not smoohtly either. I have used color lerp many times before but with fog color seems not to work well.

    I have used fog color lerp in a very similar project and it works fine, dont understand why with same code it fails in a project and not in the other.

    Maybe post the actual code you're using, so that others can try it locally on their machines and give you more feedback.

    I found the problem but not the solution. If i use gamma space fog color lerp works fine, and if i use linear it doesnt work well, maybe it doesnt work well cause it needs Pro to work well?. But linear makes the scene much better looking, so fog is a bit useless unless there is a way to make the objects you want to use linear.

    I'm having this exact same problem right now... why does lerping the fog color behave differently between gamma and linear modes?

    That's what gamma is supposed to do. It's nicely explained here:
