Although the original still works, these are a nicer quality which is especially noticeable close up :steamthumbsup:

@Skelsa thanks for the heads up, fixed the link. It was an oversight left over from one of my other mods' description.

Compression is a bit technical. In the game files the star textures are uncompressed, meaning they are full quality. In Agami's original mod Agami had compressed their textures using BC1 compression. It reduces the file size but divides the texture into blocks which look pixelated especially when zoomed in.

I edited the star textures and saved them in ucompressed format which basically preserves their quality at all times. Heres a link to a picture that demonstrates the difference Compression Example [sv-journal.org]

Your original mod link goes to "Lighter Borders", which is a different mod from the same author. Also, what do you mean with "removed compression"?
Thanks for keeping that old stuff updated, appreciate it.
