I'm intrigued ... by any chance, do you have a comparison screenshot to see exactly what you mean by "better". I will try it anyway, but not at home at the moment.

Makes the stars slightly more varied in size (generally a bit bigger) and more bright. Goal is to achieve same look as stars in 1080p has, but on large resolutions and high AA.

Seems like a keeper to me, and I'm a single player fan, so the IC is not a problem to me

Your mod is a delight and it is my honour that you find my silly video helpful.

Thanks Rudel! Even if the vids were 720p on my cellphone. It was so easy to see the difference! A keeper for sure!

I just saw. I have no clue what happened with the post above. It seems if you post too quickly, bad stuff happen.

Beautiful. Just need actual constellation locations now... that should be easy, right?

Pretty sure they are there... I think I read somewhere that DCS honors itself by having a correct night sky.

Need to conform this with Dr. deGrasse Tyson.

Starlink satellites clutter the sky now, so should work on a grid pattern going forward?

Another “must have” quality of sim addition. Starting to be a few must have’s now, this - Bandits weather mod, Bartheks texture work, all add quality to the sim.

Outstanding work Sir.

Agreed! This and Arttu's Light fix are now in my mod folder.
