Black Hole Cubemap

This cubemap has been captured in the game Space Engine. It shows the accretion disk of the Sagittarius A* black hole, the one at the center of our galaxy. Which means, of course, that the rest of what you see in the sky is the Milky Way. At the bottom of the cubemap you can see the black hole itself (as you can see in the screenshots), although it is only visible when you move up enough with the camera that the map itself disappears.
I hope you like this! I already have a few ideas for other space themed cubemaps, but these are not a priority right now. If you are interested in this kind of stuff please let me know and I may look into that sooner.

To see this cubemap in game, subscribe to Cubemap Replacer and Daylight Classic (and this cubemap, of course) and activate all three in the Content Manager under the Mod section. Once it's activated, the cubemap won't show in the list of cubemaps right away, but only once you reload the game. I don't know what this happens, so if you have a solution for this let me know. Once you reload the game, go into the Cubemap Replacer Mod's options and select this cubemap from the drop down menu. It should load quite quickly since it uses only 1k images.

The last screenshot shows my recommended settings for Daylight Classic, Cubemap Replacer and Fog Controller. These are very useful to hide all types of fogs so that everything is clearly visible. The "Minimize horizon" option in Cubemap Replacer is especially important for this reason.

Most LUTs will work ok with this cubemap. For example, the vanilla European or Tropical LUTs will give the sky a warmer look and will make the red of the accretion disk pop more, while the vanilla Faded or Dark LUTs will make the sky slightly blue. If you want space to look darker I suggest Owl's 70s Vintage, Oceanic LUT V1 or San Minato LUT V1.3.


Thanks to The Retired Mandandalorian for testing this cubemap!
