REL: Moon mod

[Carotio]

It comes in three version, though I recommend using the small one. I have made it so that the moon changes brightness through its different phases. So a full moon is at its brightest and a new moon, which you never see anyway, at its darkest!
I'm not sure the medium really works that well, but some may try it, and can give some feedback.
Some like the big version, I really don't like it that big anymore...
The previous version, I spoke about, where the moon also changed colour: yellow etc, has been abandoned! ;-)

Thanks a lot C for this!!!! :up:
I was wondering when was it going to be avaialable...
Downloading it right now.
One last question: If I recall correctly, you were working on a similar moon mod that had a little taint of yellow. did you finish it or is it still WIP?
Thanks again C.

I'm alway looking for better enviromental effects. Thanks:up:

Paco.

You're welcome!

The chart shows for instance: B+20,C+10 that means the image I used, I gave it +20 in brightness and +10 in contrast. The contrast to make the image of the moon more black/white and less grey, and the brightness was to make the moon phases so that the closer to full moon, the brighter it would be because it receives more light from the sun, and the closer to new moon, the darker it will be, because the light it receives goes through the atmosphere of the earth!

CapZap, look above it first post ;) I abandoned the coloured moon. It looked okay a few times with a yellow moon, but too often, it looked ridiculous. The problem is that in some parts of the world, a yellow moon would be quite normal, and it would be normal, when it's just above the horizont, but not high in the sky. So I skipped the idea.

Thank You very much for Your explanation :up:

got it, but it doesn't show up in jegme:-? . this thing a manual insertion?

[lutzow]

Thank you for the moon.:up:
...and what about u-skin from your avatar ?;)
Is this downloadable for us?:-? ;)

Ohh... sorry!

When you unpack it, you'll see three versions: big, medium and small.
You just pick your preferred version, move it to the MODS folder, and voilà JSGME friendly! ;)

[Fusek]

Nice work. This got me thinking, could somebody change the picture of the moon with a picture of the star wars deathstar? Just for fun of course;)

[Carotio]

You're welcome!
The skin from my avatar is actually a IXb skin from STEEDS, nr. 2 IIRC. If you search in this forum after his IXb skins, I'm sure it's still available as single download. If you still can't find it, then write me, and I'll look for it for you!

Sure it would be possible...

[Paajtor]

Looks promising...gonna try the small version, thx. :up:

[Kaleu. Jochen Mohr]

nice moon, on top of my download list :up:

[Capa]

Mmmm atmospheric. :smug:

Idea: Put the preview moons in your first post on a dark background so it's easier to see what they look like in context.

[Ivan Putski]

Just d/l it, nice one Carotio, thank you. Puts:up:
