Using Perlin noise to make the Aurora


Recommended Posts

This is one of the more common requests I get for a mod. However doing it as a mod isnt that easy. The current system uses three prefab objects that are animated. A mod would need to find and disable them (not hard) then activate the Perlin noise aurora. I have done research into this system, and its interesting. Using Perlin noise would make the aurorae more realistic and actually random. 

This is the article I read about it: Aurora Borealis: A Breakdown. Give it a read. But it does get somewhat complicated
