📋 About This Mod
The myconids are super cool, but unfortunately their glow can be pretty pixelated, which stands out because it's so bright compared to the rest of them. For this mod, I've upscaled the myconid glow textures by x4 - the resulting textures are either 4K or 2K.
I thought the upscaled textures were a bit sharp and not as glowy-appearing as the originals, so I added some gaussian blur. Both versions (blur and no blur) are available for download.
