**Note on Appearance Changes**: When enabling shadows on a light, be aware that the light's
appearance might change compared to when it's rendered without shadows in the compatibility

This change in rendering space can sometimes drastically alter the light's appearance. To achieve a similar
appearance to an unshadowed light, you may need to adjust the light's energy setting.
