Does this still work or is this mod series planned to be fixed for the future? For me, all NES skyboxes are not showing sadly...

I once went to this region to get a glimpse of the supermassive black hole at the border of minmatar space, and I got ganked

Thanks for using the skybox. Unless you have static solarpanels pointing towards the direction of the standard star location, you should be harvesting the same amount of energy in full starlight. The current static light position in this skybox might change back sometime, although Keen has plans for a variable light position as well from what I understand.

Very bad if you like using solar panels. Very nice detail and coloration it just needs more light and a point of rigin for light.
