I copied masserSizex3.0 into Data folder, skyrimgalaxy into textures/sky, and 8 Masser images into the same folder. Still doesn't work. What else do I have to do?
Masser as Uranus looks the same through out all phases of the lunar cycle; is this correct? Kinda strange to see Secunda go through the phases each month, but Masser looks the same every night. Although your pics look nice.
Make a new folder on the desktop screen. Label it "Skyrim sky" or something. Open it. Put the mod file which you downloaded manually into the folder. Now right click, highlight "7zip", a list should appear, and then click open archive. You should now have a window displaying all the files in the mod. Highlight all the files and drag them into the "Skyrim sky" folder you just made. Now look through them (If you're having trouble viewing them because your photo viewer won't view the files your going to have to read their names and then put together which one's are which by looking at the screen shots on the mod page.) and pick the one you want. You should have one masser, one secumbus (There is only one anyway I think. And sorry my spelling might be off on secumbus, you will see it though and know which one.), and one galaxy picked out of the packs. Now you're going to make another folder inside the "Skyrim sky" folder. You're going to name this folder "Nightsky via Silver". Go into this folder and make another folder, and name this folder " Data " (These are case sensitive and you must name the folders as follows.). Next go into that folder and make another folder and name it "textures". Now go into that folder and make another folder and name the folder "sky". Leave this window aside for the moment. Open another window of the "Skyrim sky" folder. Now open one of the file packs you just picked (Either the masser, secumbus, or galaxy you just picked out.). Keep clicking through the folders, which you should notice are identical to the one's you just made, until you get to a number of files (Which should be just after the "sky" folder.). They have .dds at the end of them (Hopefully you have the option to see extensions like that checked though. Otherwise the file type .dds won't show at the end and you'll just see a file, such as with the masser for example, named Masser_Gaea_half or Masser_Gaea_wan without .dds at the end. Note that the names may vary depending on which ones you picked. These are the files you're looking for.). Now select all these files in each of the 3 folders you picked for the masser, the secumbus, and the galaxy, and drag them into the very bottom of the "Nightsky via Silver" folder which you should have open in the other window you set aside. The folder "Nightsky via Silver should look like this inside
Data (Don't forget to put the esp files included with the in package next to the texture options here.) v textures v sky v (This is where the Masser_gaea_half.dss, Masser_gaea_wan.dds, and other dds files from all 3 folders should go.) Now you're almost done. Drag the whole folder "Nightsky via Silver" with the textures from all 3 of the options you picked out, out to the desktop and right click it. Highlight "7zip" again, and when the window appears click "Add to archive". You have now made a .7z (7zip) archive file. Drop this into the nexus and the mod is now properly ready to be installed. Just click it and install. Overwrite all if asked.

Although your pics look nice.
