📋 About This Mod
Mod Information
Makes Earth habitable again by giving it back its atmosphere. I've added lots of flora and resources like eg. Gold, Platinum, Plutonium, Neon, Xenon and more. Added fauna for land, sky and water, with creatures like Terromorphs, Seabats, Leafbug Grazers, Cassowary Scavengers, Herding Fluke Filterers, Hunting Angler Stalkers and much more.
Planet Biomes have been changed so Earth is now a Jungle, Green Forest or Pine Forest instead of a barren wasteland and added Oceans to the planet with sea life.
There will now be life on Earth, meaning you will see new outposts and life signs, so you will come across enemy outposts and mining facilities, also you will be able to fight and steal enemy ships that land on Earth.
Added a new climate to Earth with version 1. 2, which includes, Sandstorms, Rain, Snow, Thunderstorms, Unique Weather Variants and much more. Read the changelog for more update news.
Big thanks to Aurreth for providing me with the planetdata and making this possible.
Any endorsements and feedback is appreciated.
IMPORTANT READ: Its usually best to travel to Earth from a different planet first, if you're already on Earth and load this mod it may bug out as the landscape and environment has changed. If you have any other ESM files that modify Earth, you might have to edit the load order so my mod is the priority, or delete the conflicting mods.
As a precaution, make backups of your saves incase of mod conflictions down the line, I wont be responsible for you breaking your saves.
Main Files
Now you can choose between a Tropical Forest, Green Forest and Pine Forest with Version 1. 4, comparison images below

Optional Files
Added an optional download file that removes the terrormorph creatures, if they feel too overwhelming in-game.
