Hey guys,

I have been searching around for different methods of changing the appearance of the sky, but I still haven’t managed to make it work in my specific case.

At the moment I have a very simple landscape set up with a day-night cycle. I would love to change the sky from this:

To something like this:

How do I go about changing the look of the sky and adding my own little elements (like the planets) to it?

A sort of unrelated question I also have is if the volumetric clouds affect the performance overall significantly?

Thank you in advance!

You need to reduce skylight and directional light intensities.
Then the night sky with the stars is just a different texture, you want to replace the day texture with this one.
Clouds coverage and color can be modified from the skysphere blueprint IIRC.

Where would I find the texture I need to replace?
