Title: Oblivion Nightskies Overhaul
Author: Grim Reaper
Release v1.0
15/05/2020
Description:
I never really found what i was looking for... there are a few mods out there, like weather mods and others replacers that give some attention to Night Skies of Obliviion, but wasn't really seduced by final result while playing at night. I, therefore decided to make my own stuff to cover up this need.
This mod do attempt to enhance Night Skies by adding various HD textures made from scratch ... (apart from Busted moon asset from Bsylphir) ... and REMOVED the 2 textures i used from @Discovery1
This mod was supposed to be a tribute to his memory...but using 2 textures from him is apparented to a foolish & unrespectfull behaviour from me... more than dedicated and giving all credits to him. Anyway , no more problems , all assets in this mod are from me.
This mod is not just a simple replacer and it comes with the possibility of composing your own Night Skies.
I have added 3 more nodes to Bethesda original Stars meshe to be able to mix differents stars/nebulas and overlays.
You can choose between 3 main Nebulas as a background, 2 more Nebulas overlays and finally an aurora/busted moon/aurora + busted moon.
Almost all textures are 2k for the best results. Evreything has been designed in order to improve visibility/clarity.
Nebulas are nicely blended with other textures to be present/visible but not to take all space. Stars are brighter, contrast is better and they are thinner.
Also reworked vanilla nebulas/stars and resized them to 1k/2k.
This way it makes possible to mix up, up to 7 textures without being messy.
Main background nebulas have all been made from 4K pictures and deeply reworked with photoshop to stretch properly through meshes and cover up the horizon.
4 different meshes are included in this pack. There are the bones of this mods as they will alow you compose your own ambiance...
You can choose between :Nebulas 1 & 2 + overlay , Nebula 1 + overlay , Nebula 2 + overlay , Nebulas 1 & 2 only.
