FancyClouds2D v1.1.0.zip
1-click install
FancyClouds2D replaces the game's 3D clouds with a more realistic yet low resolution 2D skybox-based cloud system.
These 2D clouds simulate various formations and dynamically adjust their darkness based on precipitation according to the in-game weather, so they're more than just a simple animation!
Currently the 2D clouds simulate formations for all the core in-game weather types: Altocumulus, Cirrocumulus, Clear sky, Cumulonimbus, Cumulus, Haze, Overcast, and Stratus.
Uses a configuration file that you may modify if you wish to change anything: Make clouds transition between formations or precipitation faster or slower, control how quickly clouds move, change the pixilation amount of clouds, and adjust the overall speed or intensity of cloud simulations!
IMPORTANT:
1.) This mod has been reported to not be compatible with the Volumetric Shaders mod, this might be rectified in a future update!
2.) There will likely be a degradation of performance with this mod enabled, this is due to the complex calculations within the shader and may be improved in the future!
3.) This mod may potentially cause issues, graphical or otherwise. Please feel free to report any problems you may have in the comments below!
4.) If you are using this in conjunction with my other mod BetterFPCamera, please make sure you have that mod updated to at least v1.2.0, otherwise the clouds will rotate along with the camera!
5.) The degree in which the cloud formations are accurate to their real life counterparts is currently debatable and will be tweaked and improved in the future!
6.) This mod makes use of a modified version of Xorberax's sky/cloud shaders!

I really like these clouds, but I have some comments. The clouds should be whiter. The moon should not overlap clouds as in the first picture. I hope you optimize it.
Finally! At last someone gave the clouds a little facelift. 👍
DrBubba Just the file, in a later update I will probably use Config lib though. Thanks for letting me know that it isn't compatible with the Volumetric Shading mod! I'll mess around and see if I can get it to work
Is there any access in-game to the config, or just modding the file? I didn't see any entry for it in the Config Lib panel.
Also, Pseudonym_Tim I did try it with Vol Shading Mod and it crashed to desktop. Disabling VSM and I loaded just fine.
RuneScholar I'm not sure honestly, I can test it out later and update the description of the mod to reflect if it's compatible or not!
How might this mod play along with the Volumetric Shader mod? Any potential conflicts?
