📋 About This Mod
One thing I missed moving from Cathedral to Azurite was far fewer variations in sunsets / sunrises, so I ported over the additional textures from Cathedral Weather and assigned them. Most clear weathers will now have a sunrise or sunset as shown in screen shots.
Furthermore, I adjusted the god rays, sun color, sunlight color, and sun glare during sunset and sunrise to blend more appropriately with the cloud textures for a more consistent and vivid experience.
This requires Azurite Weathers II will work fine with Azurite Expansion so long as my plugin is given priority although these will not be distributed to CarbonDice's new clear weathers.
