In heavens Graphics overhaul
My biggest and most ambitious mod so far, I present you my CKII graphical overhaul.
I love how earth looks from satelitte and this love was one of the reasons I started making this mod. This mod tries to emulate that look that you get when viewing earth from satellite. Visibility comes second, beauty comes first, so beware of that.
LITE version (IRONMAN version):
If you want to retain multiplayer and achievement compatibility, there is now a LITE version of this mod which removes some features to retain compatibility. Check it out here: LITE version
Font:
Font used in screenshots is now seperate mod, check it out here: Font
I compiled a list of what’s in for a treat inside this mod:
- 34 completely new textures (from punny vanillas 12).
- New graphics.
- Dynamic atmosphere, political mapmode and water.
- Sparkles effect on water.
- Dynamic, simple borders.
- New map font.
- New winters.
- New rivers.
- Reduced topology (mountains aren’t as high)
Compatibility:
- Achievement incompatible (You won’t get achievements with this mod).
- Multiplayer incompatible (Unless everyone uses this mod).
- Windows, Mac, Linux compatible.
Performance:
- Performance is worse, at least judging by my unscientific measurements.
Future of the mod:
- It certainly is rough around the edges in some areas due to how many places can get overlooked. I still want to do something about steppe area where textures are not up to par with other areas. If you find some weird looking places, please let me know.
Mods that work well together with this mod:
- Cultural Cities Remix by Nendur.
Compatibility patches:
- More Navigable Rivers by Licarious Fenrir.
- Ace Combat Strangreal by yf22 Fenrir.
