In Morrowind, this multiplier is non-existent, i.e. it is always 1.0.

Use the traditional point light attenuation formula which lacks an early fade out.
A flaw of the traditional formula is that light influence never quite reaches zero.
This is physically accurate, but because lights don't have infinite radius (see :ref:`light bounds multiplier`),
this can cause lighting seams between objects that got the relevant point light assigned and objects that didn't.
Early fade out helps diminish these seams at the cost of darkening the scene.
Morrowind uses the traditional formula, so you may want to enable this if you dislike the brightness differences.
Alternatively, refer to :ref:`minimum interior brightness`.

A consequence of the new lighting system is that interiors will sometimes be darker
since light sources now have sensible fall-offs.
A couple solutions are to either add more lights or increase their
radii to compensate, but these require content changes. For best results it is
recommended to set this to 0.0 to retain the colors that level designers
intended. If brighter interiors are wanted, however, this setting should be
increased. Note, it is advised to keep this number small (< 0.1) to avoid the
aforementioned changes in visuals.
