Dynamic Aesthetic Backgrounds VBE Edition

Description

Vanilla Backgrounds Expanded is required. Previously there was support for RimThemes as well. This has been removed to reduce mod size and gain the capability of selective background loading.

Royalty is required to use the Royalty background.


This mod adds animated backgrounds made via photo manipulation and visual effects using Adobe Photoshop and After Effects.


Requires use of Vanilla Backgrounds Expanded. Enable the "Allow Animations" option for them to show

Shouldn't conflict with anything. Though, in the future this mod may be relatively large in file size. I'm not sure if Rimworld will load all the videos in memory or not. If it does then that is something to keep an eye on and may limit users with less RAM.


Load order does not matter. Load it before VBE or load it after, you decide!


Most artwork elements included in this mod are from Ludeon Studios.
Starfield background video is property of Bethesda games.

Currently includes Core's and Royalty's Background. I plan on adding Storytellers to Core's background and animating Ideology's background next.

After a long hiatus I have come back to add a Starfield background!

Once I finish the vanilla backgrounds I will then add more based on various mods.

One of my favourite visuals-only mods. Hope you can add the other DLCs at some point! Thanks for the great mod. :)

the biotech backround would be pretty cool to see animated

Part of me is afraid to use this for loading game time......but another part of me is like a child in a candy shop going WOW to the amazing beauty of this.

Apparently Opus codec got added to windows 10 with version 1903. Eh, whatevs. I rerendered the vid without exporting audio. Let me know if error persists after update.

Interesting. Ill remove the unnecessary audio codec in that vid. What operating system are you on? Just curious.

I kept it 4k this time because the file size was surprisingly small. Its way more efficient than all the other videos actually despite being twice as long and significantly higher resolution, being that most of the video was still with fewer colors I guess. The bitrate of this new video is actually a lot lower than the Royalty one.
