P.B.O (Planets Biomes Overhaul)
By VolaticWolf
Community Rating
Ever felt like every star system's planets was just downright repetitive and not fun and worthwhile to explore at all? Well, you're in luck! This mod aims to diversify every single planet and biome so that most of them feel unique!
Planets & Biomes Overhaul is an evolving project so please submit feedback! I read them all
Mod features:
Updated all atmosphere colors for all the planets
Updated the Coniferous Forest Biome by adding river streams, volcanoes, various hills, lakes and lots of trees (right now is reset due to technical bugs in Creation Kit)
Trees are more realistically scaled
You can land on Asteroids and Gas Giants
and many more!
What I hope to achieve in the future:
All planets overhauled, including custom textures
All terrain overhauled and expanded, making it much harder to find similar patterns. This includes brand new mountains, hills, rivers, volcanoes, lakes, craters, canyons and much more!
I hope you like this mod and if you have any feedback, definitely let me know on Twitter X (@VolaticWolf). Feel free to join my discord server (https://discord.gg/uSe8V6tg2a), where I actively discuss with members! Thank you so much for downloading!

1.2.6V1.2.5 + Hotfix Changelog
This was originally intended to be a bigger update, but since the new update delayed my progress by not allowing me to save, I had to start with a fresh new file. Luckily, I was able to carry some things over (but not all, unfortunately).
Here are the changes:
- New & Improved Atmosphere Colors
- Improved the terrain for New Jemison's Coniferous Forest Biome
- All of Indum's gas giants are now landable. I recommend landing on the one with the strongest gravity, it's really cool with the Rev-8!
