Sky Bound
by Rexlar
Sky Bound changes the sky, with an overhauled sun and moon and new sky details, for Fabric on 1.21 – 1.21.11.
What it does
The mod replaces the default sun and moon with a reworked version, and adds sky elements meant to make the sky look less plain. It does not add cloud textures, so players who want cloud changes should pair it with Better Clouds Qendolin. Client-side only: servers run without it, and only the client needs it. Fabric builds cover 1.21 – 1.21.11, with 1.0.0 for 1.21.11 as the latest file, released under the MIT License and open source.
Key features
Overhauled sun and moon
The sun and moon are redrawn with new visuals, changing how the sky looks during the day and night.
New sky details
Additional sky elements add variety to the sky, so it looks less static from one day to the next.
Source and textures included
The source code and textures used to make the mod are public, so others can read or reuse them under the license.
