📋 About This Mod
Transparent Moons
As from my other mod for Dawnfire ENB and Ebony ENB, I decided to release a standalone version to add transparancy to the moons. It should be mostly compatible with every moon texture and/or weather mod out there.
I just thought it looked magical. And after much comments about the lore, I decided to not pin it down on such. As I completely misinterpreted some of the information about it.
If you think this mod aims to chase realism, look elsewhere.

Further install notes / recommendations:
Normal Install
-
[]Just install with your favorite modmanager
[
]Pick your prefered size in the FoMod[]Load it after any night-sky texture mod and weather mod
As for Azurite weathers:
-
[]Pick the full texture version in the FoMod
[]Pick one of the plugins for the prefered moonsize
Why? Because Azurite uses a different size of moon textures and doubles of the moons in the ESP to compensate for this.
If you encounter the moon being too big or too small, you should pick my full texture and one of the plugins for your prefered size.
Compatible
-
[]Any sky textures
[]Probably any moon textures

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Lightweight and purely cosmetic, won't affect performance.
- Easy install with FoMod, just drop it in your mods folder.
- Decent download count (18k) shows people are using it.
⚠️ Cons
- Only 42 endorsements, so it's not a community favorite.
- Texture edits can conflict with other moon or sky overhaul mods.
- Limited to moons—if you want a full sky overhaul, this won't cut it.
For 7 Days to Die players who want a subtle visual tweak to the moons without overhauling the whole sky. If you're a screenshot enthusiast or just like the idea of stars peeking through, this is a nice touch. Skip if you're looking for major graphical changes or if you already use a comprehensive sky mod.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a FoMod, you can install it with the in-game mod launcher or manually extract to the Mods folder.
- If you're using other sky or moon mods, load order matters—place this one after to ensure it takes effect.
- Check the mod's forum page for any known conflicts with popular overhaul mods like Darkness Falls.
