Better Skies replaces the default sun, moon, and star rendering with high-resolution, multi-layered skyboxes. This allows for realistic clouds, nebulae, and planetary bodies.

Skybox Mechanics

  • Layering: Multiple sky textures can be layered on top of each other with different blend modes (add, subtract, multiply).
  • Fading: Textures can fade in and out at specific times of the day or night.
  • Rotation: Custom rotation speeds can be set for different layers, allowing clouds to move independently of the stars.
  • Biome Fog: Sky textures can be tied to biome-specific fog colors for seamless environmental transitions.
