About this mod

Skyboxes Advanced for Viking Conquest Blood Eage

Permissions and credits
Small update, got permission to upload the modified ini from the blood eagle creator so it will make installation easier. Changed a few skies out so there are a few more cloudy days a few less blue, completely eliminated clear blue sky, now every file included will fire up (I had new night skies named wrong, sorry about that), removed redundant textures. Added a much better (in my opinion) sun texture that doesnt look as pixelated on cloudy days.

Viking Conquest for Warband is my all time most played game. One which has not gotten all of the attention I feel it could have in regards to modding, though the few mods that have come out have been obvious labors of love, the community is extremly small in comparison to Warband.

First off none of this would be possible without VC Balance Mod at Mount and Blade: Viking Conquest Nexus - Mods and Community

Come say hi at the discord of Hooded Horse, author of balance mod, https://discord.gg/pmw3bDvg

I am using this to give some much needed diversity to the skies in the excellent Blood Eagle 4.2.5 mod for Viking Conquest (its on the "other" mod site) it also uses Balance Mod and Armor Mod for Viking Conquest at Mount and Blade: Viking Conquest Nexus - Mods and Community

Over the past few month thanks to coronavirus I have been looking to get a few things tweaked in regards to my personal install of Viking Conquest, I got the skies from Skyboxes Advanced at Mount & Blade Nexus - mods and communityworking a few weeks back, and have been editing them heavily in my free time.

There is also one skybox created by the mighty Brujoloco, who has been busy creating some awesome stuff for VC https://www.nexusmods.com/mbwarband/mods/6393

There are a few loading screens that are included that I use that were created by Johnny Nawalony over at Taleworlds as well as a purely optional file if you like, I personally think they are wonderful. [OSP] Main Menu and Loadscreen art | TaleWorlds Forums

This "mod" is not finished, I am not a modder, I have merely ported it to work, I AM editing these skyboxes to be more pleasing with a reshade I am working on and some further tweaks to Balance Mod which I will release as well (which will remain as optional additions)

I just figured why wait if the port is working, release it for anyone interested and contiue tweaking my own personal stuff. 

In the future I will upload my personal version of this.

You should give the game 5-10 in game days before all of them start cycling through.

Now, FINALLY, on to install: which will also be in the download

First and foremost if you would like to revert, back up your Textures folder. Backup your Module ini, postfx.txt then find your skyboxes.txt in your Data folder and back that up.

Or better yet create a new copy of whatever version of viking conquest you would like to use this on with copy/paste.

1. Open texture folder of mod, copy all files to texture folder of install
2. Copy postfx.txt over to install
3.Open up Data folder of mod and install, copy skyboxes.txt from mod to install.
4. Open Resource folder of mod and install and copy the brf file from mod to install.
5. Copy included ini file from mod to install

Click file in the top left and save. Happy Raiding.
