The Sun is not yellow

In 1 collection by Major Jon

Description
This mod changes the color of the sun to be more white.
The sun will still look the same from planets, that is controlled by the planet data itself.

This mod also makes the skybox darker and reduces ambient light.
That means slightly darker shadows and much darker nights on planets.

Compatible with speed limit mods and skybox mods.


The main goal of this mod is not to achieve a complete visual overhaul of the game,
I just wanted it to look a little bit prettier and more realistic while still looking like vanilla.

only if the mod is added to the server, then it's active for everyone. Theoretically you could overwrite your base game files with these, but I don't know the consequences of that. The game might change them back, or you get kicked of the server or something, so try that at your own risk.

Don't overwrite the files directly, change the values inside the sbcs that are different in the mod files.

major John first and foremost, love your ships. second, is it possible to add this mod where I don't see a yellow sun while playing online?

Alright, thank you

no, but you could do that yourself quite easily. Make a new folder in AppData\Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Mods\New_Folder, go to steamapps\workshop\content\244850\2722299710 and copy the Data folder into your new folder. Then delete the Environment.sbc from inside the data folder. When you load a world you should see a local mod called New_Folder, just use that instead of this workshop version.

Is there a version of this that doesn't darken the skybox? It interferes with other skybox mods and makes them much darker than they should be
