📋 About This Mod
Duke Patrick\'s Magic you can believe in Less \"cartoon\" and more organic and magical shaders for more immerse play. Rev 6: I replaced custom effects that I took out to fix the transporter problems. I found a better way to fix the transporter problems by seting the transporter effects to a duration of 5 seconds. But this does not necessarily mean I am back to updating this mod so please do not ask. I have not completely finished it at this time. So some of the effects are still not what I want, but I am no longer updating this mod at this time. IF you use this you are acknowledging that you understand it is AS IS and do not expect a \"finished mod\" with a detailed Read Me file all the trimmings! If this would make you sour on the mod at all then please do not download it.
