📋 About This Mod

This retextures the sun to give a more radiant effect. I thought the vanilla sun was a little too over bloomed which washed out it's effect a bit too much. I've redone the rays and added a little bit more colour to them and put a bit of detail into the sun itself.

VERSION HISTORY: 1. 0: Initial release

Excellent video and fantastic soundtrack from Ultimate Immersion thanks for including my work, a real compliment.
