Description
Want to keep the aesthetic of my modded planets but don't want the FPS drop? This one's for you!
By removing the parallax of each planet's surface, you won't experience as much lag. You will still, of course, still get the same 'feel' of the planet because of the sky colors.

As of right now, this patch removes parallaxes from these planets:
  • Hallowed Ocean
  • Hallowed Planet
  • Hellish Planet
  • Starry Planet
  • Starry Ocean
  • Money Planet
  • Divine Planet
  • Grassland Planet
  • Wild Grassland
If more planets are created by me in the future, I will update this mod to include removing those parallaxes as well.

!!NOTICE!! I have found a way to have it so that the mod detects what planets you are using and automatically removes the parallax. If you don't have the other planets, it simply will just 'skip them', meaning you DO NOT need ALL planets for this to work. You can now safely pick and choose! This will be easier! If I make more planets in the future I don't want people to have to get all my planet mods for this one simple parallax remover.

It should be? This just removes parallaxes from only MY planets. As for other planets, there may be other patches.
This mod checks for what planets of mine you have and removes them so you do not have to download every planet I have made.

thanks- will get this one, as the other one was cheesy and wasn't to my liking
will this work/do you plan on making this compatible with FU?

This just removes the surface parallaxes of my planets. The underground ones have not been touched unless someone specifically asks me to remove those as well.

all of them- another mod removes underground parallax, making it a bright white, which is kinda cheesy since you can see where caves are
does this mod do the same, or will underground parallax backgrounds be black/dark?

For which planet?

does this also set the underground to be a strange bright color?

You're welcome! :cozybethesda:
I guess since we usually only see it in small pools; yes. That is what it looks like when it is a very large body of water.

Thank you for the answer. I understand what your mod does now. I'm still confused about the water though. It doens't look like the vanilla healing water. It's all blocky and way more white. Does that happen when you make a large ocean of it?

The only thing this mod does is remove the backgrounds, or parallels, from worlds. They are multi-layered sprites to enhance the atmosphere of a planet. But they can cause lag on low systems.
That water is Healing Water, a vanilla liquid, so I cannot change the way it looks.

What does this do exactly? For some reason the worlds I visit with healing water as the ocean. It looks all blocky. Like your 3rd screenshot. Mine looks nothing like the first. I can barely see under the water.
