Hang the stars in the sky

LikiLoki · September 2022

Now that I can make the night time in my house, the next step will be to decorate the starry sky. I would like to hang bright constellations on it. Not a bad idea, is it? The idea came to me when I saw this statue. And under what star were you born?

I'd love to be able to put stars and constellations down as furnishings. I'm a fan of anything celestial.

Make them HUGE so you can put them high enough so there isn't parallax effect when you walk around beneath them. The comet is too small for that.

Would LOVE to have stars and sky as placeable objects!
I don't know if they could simulate proper movement relative to your character without an actual sky box tho.

For example, I made an "open-sky" courtyard inside the Hall of the Lunar Champion using a starry sky texture in EHT's build kit.
So when you walk up the first set of stairs just past the tablet and look up it's a starry night sky. The living spaces wrap around the courtyard, kinda of a U-shaped interior.

The EHT texture works especially well for this because it also does not reflect light. So the paper lanterns I have hanging across the open "courtyard" only shed light downward, as they would in a real outside area. I think it's a design limitation with how EHT adds the textures, none of the ones I've used reflect light or FX.

I really love the feel of it, problem is if you move while looking up, the star texture moves with all the other assets of course and really ruins the effect.

I would sacrifice things to Daedra if it would give me the ability to create a proper sky box, or some other effect to make the sky move naturally in relation to the player.
