Greetings spacefarers! Welcome to my little project for the past couple of months. This was a massive pain to make this mod thus far and I would greatly appreciate it if you leave a like and an award, this was very time consuming and still has a lot of work left to be done.

The Stellaris: Console Edition, has had a lot of visual upgrades over the years whereas the PC version hasn’t been touched in the Graphical department. The aim of this mod is bring over in some capacity and or remake the higher resolution graphics from in style of the Console Edition. I would like to make both editions of the game to be more inline with each other.

Mod currently features several graphical enhancements and has built in improvements such as a bigger megastructures build menu.

Some parts of the UI has been altered to allow the display of higher quality assets.

This mod also allows the usage of any diplomatic room or any other assets such as special emblems that does not break the achievement compatibility.

This also features redone border system where borders are now primary color similar to how the Galactic Imperial core borders are displayed when an emperor is upon the throne.

Reworks the game UI to use larger image assets such as: Origins and Tech icons, other mods can build off of this.
