That's how i wanted stellaris to look and feel. Unfortunately the graphical ingame experience differs a lot from that trailer. As a consequence i started this mod (Aesthetic Cinematic Graphics = ACG) as a private use only project years ago. ACG is by no means my work alone. In fact this mod has a lot of other modders assets and ideas included (with permissions). In 2019 i decided to make it public to give back to the community and don't hide it anymore. My goal was to create a complete new graphical and immersive experience in Stellaris. I consider ACG a huge graphical overhaul project mainly centered around space battles and immersiveness in systems. The main purpose of this mod is to provide a bug free and consistent gameplay experience. This comes at a cost: this mod is no lightweight mod that is super compatible with every other mod out there. So please check out the compatibility thread and only use mods that are marked as compatible or mods that i provided compatibility patches for. This mod consists of more than one thousand files with a lot of code. Basically eve
