Get the Custom Day and Night Skies Working With Sodium

The pack includes custom skies for both day and night. However, Sodium does not load custom skies by itself. If you use Sodium and still see the plain vanilla sky, you need a separate skybox addon.

Confirm the Problem

1. Make sure the pack is in your Selected list under Options > Resource Packs.

2. Check that the other changes are working, such as shorter swords and lower fire.

3. If those changes show up but the sky is still vanilla, Sodium is the cause. The pack itself is fine.

Add a Skybox Addon

1. Find a skybox addon made for Sodium that matches your Minecraft version and mod loader.

2. Put it in your mods folder next to Sodium.

3. Launch the game and make sure the resource pack is still enabled.

4. Load a world and look up.

Check Both Skies

  • Daytime: The sky should show clouds against a clear blue sky.

You should see purple and pink nebula clouds with stars.

Still Seeing the Vanilla Sky?

  • Make sure the skybox addon actually loaded. Check the mod list if your loader shows one.
  • Move Strudelgame V2 higher in your Selected packs so no other pack replaces the sky.
  • Reload resources by pressing F3 + T, or toggle the pack off and back on.
