That'd be awesome. The ultimate visuals improved package. You should look into the "correct eye adaption" mod. Using them all together makes the game entirely different

I was thinking of merging the Rendering Improved mod with mine, I will give it a try in the near future, thanks for the reminder :)

The "rendering improved" mod changes the piss yellow pop-up when accessing block cargos or control panels to a white outline. Is there any chance you could do something similar?

Was using this skybox in the workshop presentation of a ship I made. This adds soo much immersion during playing and presenting alike, I cannot go back to the vanilla skybox anymore.

Nice. Was testing this against "Space just got real" and the sun color was an argument for me to switch. Good job.
