Add a physically-based sky same as GTA6.
So you can see a sky with an appearance similar to GTA6.
Much better than NVE's in sunny daytimes (also sunrise and sunset).
For version lower than 0.95: Need Reshade version from April, and rename dxgi.dll to "anything".asi, otherwise game will crash.
Compatible with GGX Specular, and will combine soon.
Early prototype, so there are many visual imperfections.

Anyone tried it with legacy?
A groundbreaking mod
Mod is not working with me at all , it produces green reflections all over the place and the buildings and everything around me is not good , plus I suggest to include skydome.ytd since I don't have it in directory you specified .
Playing On Enhanced With NO NVE AT ALL .
Since its a prototype , I can confirm that its doing green reflections everywhere and buildings look like they are stripped out of textures or something , plus the lack of skydome.ytd in the files makes it even harder .
Was trying on vanilla graphics enhanced .
i absolutely love this please keep up the great work. i have one request please make an update included with a moon cause the default moon doesn't fit into the skydome correctly. also please make a weather cycle with a sun and clouds that matches this skydome absolutely stunning
完全用不了，直接闪退。
@LiangNaisama 用4月份的Reshade并且把Reshade的dxgi.dll后缀改成asi
@ER-DNA If I'm not busy later, I will
@XxxxA Can you use QuantV with this? or anything else
@XxxxA Could u please tell me which version of reshade should we use? It's hard to know what is April reshade. In official web. we just found v3.8.0 published in Augest, and V3.7 published in seven month ago, which means before the last one being published in Feburary.
@gtav666gta5 I didn’t remember, I guess 3.7 the last version before April
@gtav666gta5 And newer one may work too, It crash on newest Reshade
will it work on legacy
crashed then and crash now
"Add a physically-based sky."
Bro what does that even mean?
@XxxxA how did I not know if this?
Why should I install reshade with full addon support if I'm gonna remove reshade.asi?
Still no clue what this mod does... Can you explain what this is?
friend great mod, can u help how to install this mod in more detail. there is no skydome.ytd in the directory u mention to put starfiled thier
do clouds appear?
