============================================================ krzymar Moon Size Tweak 0. 2. 0 ============================================================ (21 Nov 2008: updated to 0. 2. 0 - more moon sizes) ---------------------------------------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------- Someone asked me if there is a way to change size of the in-game moon, so there it is. It\'s done by changing internal game setting iMasserSize. I\'ve made few esps with different moon sizes for example. Treat it as done by request. This package consists modded moon sizes from small 0. 4 of original, through \"real\" 0. 6 and 0. 8, yet \"natural\" 1. 2, to large 1. 6, and mostly unnatural 2, 3, 4 and 5 times larger than original. Depending on mod file name Moon size is: krzymar-MoonSize_040%.esp - 0. 4 x original krzymar-MoonSize_060%.esp - 0. 6 x original krzymar-MoonSize_080%.esp - 0. 8 x original - in my opinion most real krzymar-MoonSize_120%.esp - 1. 2 x original krzymar-MoonSize_160%.esp - 1. 6 x original krzymar-MoonSize_200%.esp - 2 x original krzymar-MoonSize_300%.esp - 3 x original krzymar-MoonSize_400%.esp - 4 x original krzymar-MoonSize_500%.esp - 5 x original If in your opinion original moon size fits perfectly, you don\'t have to use any of these mods. ---------------------------------------- INSTALLATION ---------------------------------------- 1. Unzip contents of chosen archive into your Fallout 3 installation \"\\Data\" subfolder. 2. Run Fallout 3 Launcher or FOMM (Fallout Mod Manager) and enable ONLY ONE of listed before variants of moon size to load in data files. 3. Deselect any other mods changing moon size (which changes iMasserSize GMST) from loading. ---------------------------------------- UNINSTALLATION ---------------------------------------- Delete chosen moon size variant file from Fallout 3 installation \"\\Data\" subfolder: krzymar-MoonSize_040%.esp - if you want to uninstall 40% moon size krzymar-MoonSize_060%.esp - if you want to uninstall 60% moon size krzymar-MoonSize_080%.esp - if you want to uninstall 80% moon size krzymar-MoonSize_120%.esp - if you want to uninstall 120% moon size krzymar-MoonSize_160%.esp - if you want to uninstall 160% moon size krzymar-MoonSize_200%.esp - if you want to uninstall 200% moon size krzymar-MoonSize_300%.esp - if you want to uninstall 300% moon size krzymar-MoonSize_400%.esp - if you want to uninstall 400% moon size krzymar-MoonSize_500%.esp - if you want to uninstall 500% moon size ---------------------------------------- VERSION HISTORY ---------------------------------------- 0. 1. 0 (20 Nov 2008): - Initial release - moon sizes: 60%, 80%, 120%, 160%, 200%, 300% 0. 2. 0 (21 Nov 2008): - Added moon sizes: 40%, 400%, 500% - Bumped all other moon sizes to new version ---------------------------------------- NOTES -------------------------
A simple gameplay tweak for Fallout 3 that adjusts the moon's size in the game world, offering nine different scale options from 40% to 500%. Ideal for players who want a more dramatic or subtle skybox without other visual overhauls. Last updated in 2008, it remains a niche but functional mod.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Simple and effective—just tweaks the moon size, no extra baggage.
- Nine different sizes give you plenty of control over your skybox look.
- Decent community support with 418 endorsements and over 7,000 downloads.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2008—might not play nice with newer mods or DLC.
- Only affects the moon—if you want a full sky overhaul, look elsewhere.
For Fallout 3 players who want to tweak the moon's size for a more cinematic or eerie wasteland vibe. If you're into atmospheric screenshots or just like a bigger moon looming overhead, this is a quick fix. Skip if you're after comprehensive visual overhauls—this is purely a single-setting tweak.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this is an older mod, make sure your Fallout 3 is fully patched to the latest version to avoid conflicts.
- If you use a mod manager like Fallout Mod Manager, you can easily toggle the moon size on and off to test different looks.
- Try pairing this with a darker nights mod to make the moon really stand out.
