Just a few small tweaks to the new vanilla explosions for ships and stations, make them more dramatic and try to hide the wreck spawn better.

initial upload
Not too extreme, just modified the sequences to have more explosions and make most effects a bit bigger to try to hide the wreck spawn better.
I made this for me, and fairly happy with it, so am sharing it. You can do whatever you want with it.
See video for before and after (note there are quite a few different sets of effects that play for ship deaths so these may not have been the exact same effects being compared. But should give an idea what it looks like.
Also note - I am using my own reshade preset which adds a lot of bloom and flares so it might not look quite so intense for you guys!
