Description
Astrocraft Lite
Adds over 2500 real life stars and every constellation to the night sky. The mod tries to stay in touch with the vanilla style of stars, but with variation in hues; some stars are more reddish, others blue.
This is a lightweight version of Astrocraft, with most of its features removed for better compatibility and performance. It does not add planets, sky rotation, or anything other than stars. It is compatible with forge / neoforge and fabric, and hopefully will support the latest versions of Minecraft in the near future.
Before and After: The Crux

Before and After: Orion

Before and After: Big Dipper & Little Dipper

Resource Packs can edit the mod's stars: assets/astrocraft_lite/astrocraft_lite/stars.json
