📋 About This Mod
This mod replaces fully colored space by a more common black space.
You can choose between 2 versions :
- Black Space : Pure black space, white suns, no nebulae
- Black Space + Nebulae : Black space but colored suns and colored nebulae
Since 2. 2B, you can now also remove the too numerous stars from the sky with the No Stars optional mod (there's sadly no available slider yet in the game to just reduce the amount of stars visible in the sky).
- Enjoy black space even more with No Space Dust and No Space Plasma
- Enjoy black space without bloom everywhere with No Bloom Effect
- Enjoy Station and other indoor place independent of (black) space color with Indoors Lighting Fix
News in v4. 3 : No Star was updated for 6. 45 game version. Both Black Space mods are still fine as 3. 0.
