Permissions and credits
Sun (Real Nature) Replacer v1.0 By trixxxar

This is a Texturereplacer for the Sun. It shows now the real Sun Surface.

Inorder to fit this new Texture in to the Gameworld, you "have" to reduce fallout.ini default values from

[Weather]
fSunGlareSize=800.0000
fSunBaseSize=750.0000

to

[Weather]
fSunGlareSize=40.0000
fSunBaseSize=40.0000 !!! use values between 16 and 128.

So, if you change any of those values, your result may vary.

Installation:
1. If you haven't done this, make sure to set binvalidateolderfiles=1 in Fallout.ini.
2. Extract textures folder into \Bethesda Softworks\Fallout 3\Data\
3. Choose only one from the sun folder and copy the sun.dds into the same folder as sunglare.dds. fallout3\data\textures\sky
4. This step is not neccessary, but just in case:

If you don't have archiveinvalidation.txt in your Fallout 3 folder then copy & paste the file given. Else just add:

textures/sky/sun.dds

at the end of your archiveinvalidation.txt.

1.1
Added Mipmaps and switch to a copmressed format. Dx5.

Known issues:
The Glare-effect is now only visible when zooming to Sun!

Legal:
You can use this mod as you wish and no permission needed as long as proper credit is given.

Enjoy.
