🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since it's a texture replacer, just drop the files into your Data folder or use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2.
If you're using other moon mods, make sure this one loads after them to overwrite textures properly.
Check the mod's file structure to ensure you place the textures in the correct directory (e.g., textures\sky\).
