Hmm I'm not a big fan of the SE 2 one either I do like the modded photo I saw the other day feels like a brown dwarf system I normally use Hubblegum Skybox mod good stuff

I prefer the skybox in this mod, as well as the one in Space Engineers 2. Both are great.

Does anyone use the Vanilla Skybox? its kinda lame
SEModder4  [author] Mar 6 @ 2:21pm 
I don't think there is. But I did upload a version using the vanilla skybox with the same values that this mod has.

Is there a version of this that works with the Real Solar System mod this mod is amazing and I hate playing without it

There needs to be a setting in game to turn some of this down or off. I play on a server that uses it and a few of the guys like it the rest of us have to turn off post processing( which sucks ) because we cant see ANYTHING when we hit our Hydrogen thrusters.

A warning to server owners would be nice since they just throw this on expecting it to be a eye catcher... which it is.. till you actually try and fly a ship.

Pertam is way too bright and foggy for me with this mod
DracoNB Nov 1, 2024 @ 8:56am 
Is there a version of just the skybox somewhere?
SEModder4  [author] Oct 30, 2024 @ 8:11pm 
I uploaded a version with the vanilla skybox, so you can use a custom skybox with the mod.
Nova Astral Oct 30, 2024 @ 2:15pm 
Is there a way to disable the skybox so one can use a custom skybox?
SEModder4  [author] Oct 26, 2024 @ 9:54am 
@lightnr,
It'll be fine. :)

@Xenon OwO,
Yep it's supposed to make night time dark. :)
Xenon 0w0 Oct 26, 2024 @ 8:34am 
my only issue is that at night its way too dark, and i cant see anything at all, making ship travel incredibly dangerous
Lightnr Oct 25, 2024 @ 10:01pm 
Is that bad and will cause glitches or is it fine?
SEModder4  [author] Sep 29, 2024 @ 8:01am 
Yes, but they will overwrite each other.
Lightnr Sep 28, 2024 @ 11:58pm 
is this one compatible with space just got real to?
SEModder4  [author] Sep 25, 2024 @ 2:10pm 
@Kitsuni,
It will conflict between the two yes. Sorry.

@Дpуг,

I can look into making changes yes.

@9oookelv1ntempered,

Can you post a Steam screenshot here?

Most of the visuals are seen during night time.
AFTERM00N Sep 25, 2024 @ 6:06am 
I've got post processing on and all my settings on high, some of it doesn't seem to be working for me. I only really notice with the terrain, the frozen lake area still looks vanilla. I'm not using any plugins and this is the only mod thats changing any visuals in the world I'm testing this on. Not sure whats not working
Дpуг Sep 23, 2024 @ 9:09am 
Is it a way to reduce sun bloom? Its blinding bright
Kitsuni Sep 23, 2024 @ 4:39am 
Does this conflict with Graphics Revamped mod and if so does anyone have comparisons between the 2?
SEModder4  [author] Sep 15, 2024 @ 6:54pm 
Are you running plugins and what's your PC specs?
Acherion Sep 15, 2024 @ 5:54pm 
My game is currently having a seizure and crashing, any tips to help it not die?
SPECTRE Aug 9, 2024 @ 3:10am 
Would be nice with a darker skybox alternative.
ABlueHairedFox Aug 6, 2024 @ 5:15am 
Thank you!
SEModder4  [author] Jul 14, 2024 @ 8:38am 
Added Before and After screenshots/
SEModder4  [author] Jul 11, 2024 @ 4:54pm 
I can do that tomorrow for sure. Before and after would be pretty easy for me to do.
Lells Jul 11, 2024 @ 5:42am 
With the original link now removed from the Steam Workshop, would it be possible on this version to include some before/after screenshots? Rendering mods are kind of a personal preference thing as to what looks better, so having an idea before installing would be helpful. Thank you in advance!
Lunatricky May 23, 2024 @ 3:41am 
Plugin loader allows you to run mods on client side your mod is one of the mods that comes pre-loaded with it. I love it and I use it too!
SEModder4  [author] Apr 1, 2024 @ 4:55pm 
I didn't know the plug-in was a thing. Interesting.
Simboulis-PC Mar 27, 2024 @ 12:56pm 
I am using the Plugin version of this mod, is there a way to disable the skybox that comes with it without using a different skybox plugin?
kinngrimm Jan 22, 2024 @ 2:52pm 
So i was wondering while reading about render range and how drones stop working depending on servers or singleplayer beteen 30 and 50 km, which and correct me if i am wrong is only dependent on me the player being there and the range therefor spreading out spehricle from my current position, right? Sooo theoreticly could one say attach the human attribute ^^ to a drone for say 3km render range and sending it then on its marry way between the planets? Then being handled as their own thing as any other player would be? If one wants to make it more performant maybe decrease the range backwards and sidewards as the important thing mainly is for the drone to recognize objects in its way.
Mechanos Nov 14, 2023 @ 11:28am 
@Mettle - This didn't work for me. I flickered the lights off and on, and even tried rejoining the server, and it kept happening. Were you playing singleplayer? Also, to be honest, the grayscale thing I previously mentioned, happened more often than I'd like to admit, really throwing me off. And the lighting felt kind of unrealistic. Why do you think that's "great"? I get that people like different things, which is why I'm curious.
Mettle Nov 14, 2023 @ 10:04am 
Just to give you some infos for the flashlights: Had it on planets and very rarely in space, often times with spectator and you can fix it by just turning the lights on/off/on. So, I think just a minor thing. Happens maybe 1-2 times per hour on my end.
Great mod overall o7
mini.kurac Nov 14, 2023 @ 6:39am 
were the flashlights fixed?
SEModder4  [author] Nov 14, 2023 @ 12:15am 
no it doesn't improve fps, nothing really can.
Firekill222 Nov 8, 2023 @ 8:35pm 
Does this Improve FPS at all?
Mechanos Oct 9, 2023 @ 8:32pm 
Oh, hello there. Yeah since my post, we removed this mod from our server, and it did in fact fix the flashlights. Nights are extremely dark (not sure if vanilla or one of our mods) and having the flashlights do weird things was a no-go. They'd work in one spot, then you could see barriers where they acted like you were shining against a flat surface, and beyond that point would stay pitch black. If one of these blocked areas happened to be where you're building - gotta wait 'till morning to see.

Also while I'm here, probably just personal preference and nothing that can be done, but the less saturation was a bit jarring inside interiors built using the default color/texture. With even less color, almost made it seem like you were inside a grayscale area, and was very weird. This was less of an issue in really colorful areas and/or open space though.
SEModder4  [author] Oct 9, 2023 @ 6:44pm 
I'll look into that.
Flashlights are very weird with how they work I this game.
Mechanos Oct 3, 2023 @ 9:31pm 
This seems to cause flashlights to act weird when in the dark on planets...
SEModder4  [author] Oct 1, 2023 @ 2:52am 
You'd have to edit the mod yourself. :)
EroticBananaz Sep 30, 2023 @ 6:05pm 
Is there any config available? I feel like I want to crank the bloom down just a smidge.
Arkan Sep 27, 2023 @ 10:50pm 
is it possible to have settings that turn off the skybox of this mod?
SEModder4  [author] Sep 22, 2023 @ 8:58pm 
They no longer are making or managing any mods both past, present and the future.

According to their mod page.
Gridlock501 Sep 22, 2023 @ 12:25pm 
what happened to the old author? wdym he left the internet?
SEModder4  [author] Sep 21, 2023 @ 7:03am 
I couldn't agree more! I use it in all my worlds.
Gontarekt Sep 21, 2023 @ 6:45am 
Absolutely appreciated, this has been my favourite mod ever since I found it. It just makes everything look so much better.
SEModder4  [author] Sep 21, 2023 @ 6:33am 
Indeed, I very rarely keep mods alive at this stage of my life, but this one I Had to. :D
Gontarekt Sep 20, 2023 @ 9:02am 
Looks like the original rendering improved mod has disappeared from steam (at least I can't find it / my world no longer could find it ). Thank god I found this one!
JiLou Sep 13, 2023 @ 10:14pm 
Voxels lit up weirdly at certain height at night, this mod is really awesome and all but it just ticks me a little seeing this thing happening, would you investigate on this?
avaness Sep 13, 2023 @ 8:46pm 
This mod is now available on Plugin Loader (as the original was)
SEModder4  [author] Jul 18, 2023 @ 6:29pm 
If I can I'll make it a separate mod.
