📋 About This Mod
HN66s Moons & Planets Version: 1. 00 Date: 11-13-2016 Category: Models & Textures Requirements: Fallout 4 Author: Humannature66 ******************************************************************** -------------------------------------------------------------------- >>Initial release 1. 00 (11. 13. 2016) --------------------------------------------------------------------
Description =========== This mod changes the appearance of the moon over Boston. You can choose between a highrez Moon, or the planet Saturn. Both planets use a proper resolution; Also you can choose between vanilla-size, big size and oversized.
Important note 1: ------------------- For the Lore-fans, the Fallout-world is some kinda parallel-universe, and that gives almost every possibility for this mod. But i admit: It's not lorefriendly. If you think thatz lame or crap anyway, don't use the mod, and do not comment. I am aware of course, that a moon that close would be causing earthquakes, tsunamis and vulcanic eruptions. Actually the gravity would rip apart both earth and moon. Also Saturn wouldn't make it i assume. Important note 2: ------------------- The moon/saturn 'spins' a bit when you look up and turn. Thatz not a bug or issue with the mod, but it's just how the game engine handles the moon. The small vanilla moon also 'spins', but you won't notice it as it's so small. There's nothing to do about it. If that disturbs you too much, don't use the mod. Important note 3: ------------------- For now there's no waxing of the moon. No moon-phases. Not yet. But for the moon it will probably come. Thatz at least what i'm working on. For the Saturn it might be not possible, let's see. Belongs all to user's interest.
