About A Sight to Behold - Milky Way

From mod.io

A Sight to Behold - Milky Way

A new Milky Way Skybox and Sun Look!

 

Adjustments

  • Much darker skybox
  • More influence of sky light on planets
  • Custom sun flares
  • Smaller and whiter sun

 

This skybox is intended to be used with my other mod

https://mod.io/g/spaceengineers/m/a-sight-to-behold

but it can also be used standalone.

 

A darker, more subtle version of the skybox is available here:

https://mod.io/g/spaceengineers/m/a-sight-to-behold-milky-way-dark

 

The base texture was created using the "Billion Star ** rendering engine for the Gaia DR3 dataset".

It took a lot of effort and tweaking to make it look good inside the game.
