    Note: If you are experiencing flickering stars, it is related to ENB Star Animations.
    Make sure to use these settings in the enbseries.ini


    [SKY]
    StarsAnimationTime=0
    StarsAnimationDensity=1.0
    StarsAnimationIntensity=1.0
    ļ»æ


    or turn them off completely by setting 

    EnableAnimatedStars=false

    lived where there were regular auroras - these look almost spot on!

    Looks stunning. Your Auroras made me say "wow" when I first saw them. I know this mod doesn't cover Moons, so what Moons retexture do you recommend?

      the moon replacer you can see in the screenshots and the showcase video is called Moon and Stars - Sky Overhaul SKSE.

    appreciate all the wonderful mods you make šŸ‘
    but I'm having a slight issue on my end, and hoping you might know why or how to fix it?

      thank you! are you using any mod that changes the galaxy/nebulas? the texture itself has been adjusted and triple checked with offset.

      this was my initial thought as well but after removing all meshes and textures from other mods that might conflict, it still looks the same.
      do you think Moons and Stars would cause an issue like this?

      I'm using that mod myself as mentioned in the sticky comments. Hmmm I'm not getting this on my end, that's weird indeed

    I disabled animated stars in my enb preset (Rudy ENB for NAT 3) but I'm still having flickering stars. Otherwise a great mod, endorsed.

      There's nothing I can do I'm afraid. My testers and I didn't have that.  And almost all ppl who are using this mod don't either and there's quite a number by now. The only thing the ones experiencing flicker have in common is nat3, but even that is unlikely bc VR wabbajacks are using that weather and it has been confirmed to be fine.

      Yes I do use NAT3. However with the Cathedral stars I don't have such problem https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/20301. This is what I've been using before.

      my stars texture has a higher number of small and tiny stars, maybe thatĀ“s causing the issue for you. but like i said, itĀ“s not happening for thousands of people. a light twinkle which is kinda realistic, but no flickering.

    Hello,

    I have a brutal transition sometimes, for exemple it's green a second later it disapear and then the sky change for an other color (i've seen it only when i travel by night for exemple from high hrotgar to whitrun) what could cause this ??

    Thank you

      That must be related to the weather or sky mod you are using. My canvas doesn't touch the skybox. Just Auroras, Nebula and Stars.

      No clue what else could be the cause I'm afraid.

    Even with the suggested ENB settings I still get a lot of star flicker. However, the auroras are absolutely incredible.

    Update: Not sure what was causing it (I did play around a bit with a couple different ENB setups, but came back to my 1st one), but no more flicker. I get to use your night sky and the ENB I like!

      Same. Deleting smaller stars from 'skystars.dds' removes the flicker but is a lot of work without destroying the authors good looking stars. Haven't found a stars texture yet with no effect so far, below suggested STARS S.E. also flickers for me, but less. This, if you have the patience, gives perfect results. I don't have that patience lol

      Turning off DoF (depth of field) in ENB fixes it in all areas not covered by clouds. But I want my subtle DoF ;)
      Reducing "Bokeh shape max size" in 'enbdepthoffield.fx.ini' also reduces the flickering

      Method that worked for me to point where flicker is very minimal and natural, was to use Fever Stars version as base, open it in paint.net, use 'Blur effect' -> 3,0, and compensate it with 'brightness/contrast' -> constrast 50

    In the video all I see are greenish type auroras. I've seen pink, and white in real life, and in the game without any mods, there was this really neat purple looking one. 

    Does your mod only put out green auroras?

    it's the stars man
    the tiny tiny tiny stars

    this one looks absolutely incredible in VR, due to how it makes the world feel SO HUGE

    i think i've tried every night sky mod by now. there are so many but they all feel too close, you never quite look up at get a sense of these far off celestial details.

    i do get a little flickering in VR but honestly don't mind it. just feels like the stars are twinkling :)

      instead of adding 25 question marks, a quick glance at the description page states itĀ“s compatible with everything, just needs to be loaded after conflicting mods. and comments below already discussed NAT3 multiple times ;)

      all good, itĀ“s just time consuming to answer the same questions over and over.
      regarding NAT3 refer to the comments by HOSE85, heĀ“s using it in his wabbajack with hundreds of users and theyĀ“re all happy with the combo, actually some of the screenshots have been taken with NAT3 :)

    Unbelievable in VR, finally a canvas that doesn't tick,tick,tick like a clock when you look at the skyline.  Amazing work!

    Thank you for this mod, it's gorgeous. I'm getting a white line in the sky, do you have any idea why?

      thanks you! no idea tbh. itĀ“s been tested by couple of hundred people by now with different setups without problems. could be anything, enb, incompatible weather mod etc. i took screenshots with different daytime and weather combinations and no such thing occured.

      That's weird, I'm using NAT3 + its ENB. I guess it's a minor issue regardless.

      I see, in this case please refer to the comment by HOSE85 further down. HeĀ“s using NAT3 along with this mod in his dedicated VR Wabbajack list and provided all VR shots in my image section. If there was an issue, it would be noticeable immediately in VR, since itĀ“s very unforgiving in terms of visual inconsistencies.

      Have the same issue, using NAT III as well. Its not that big of a deal...
      But now that I see it I can not stop looking at it. Have you maybe found out what was causing it for you?

      I decided to use 4K Stars and Galaxies (Milky Way version) for the SkyrimGalaxy.dds texture and Rallyeator's mod for everything else instead.
