Every time I tried to edit a Galaxy Skydome for GTA V, it always resulted in obvious repetitive image textures, and the edges were always noticeable. This is due to how the skydome texture is programmed in GTA V, making it look artificial or unnatural.
So, instead, I edited a galaxy skydome that gives the illusion of being natural, removing all noticeable edges and obvious repetitive textures. Also works well in all night time.
But what is this good for, Well, if you enjoy role-playing like me, sometimes you just want to drive on top of Mount Chiliad and enjoy the view, including the sky, while puffing a joint or drinking beer in-game, even in real life. Also, don't forget about listening to your music playlist while driving under the galaxy sky.
What else, How about flying an alien ship or a DeLorean into the galaxy sky.

How to install:
1. Use OpenIV software.
WARNING: Back up your original "skydome.ytd" file before replacing it so you can always go back to the original skydome if needed.
2. Click "edit mode."
3. Go to "GTA V / x64a.rpf / textures" folders in OpenIV.
4. Drag the "skydome.ytd" file that you downloaded into the "textures" folder. It will automatically replace the original "skydome.ytd." You can then exit and open GTA V to see if it works.
WARNING: This doesn't work alongside any graphics mods. Therefore, please avoid installing graphics mods like Natural Vision graphic mod. Use only the vanilla graphics. Thank you for your understanding.

@Jadeyness How come this doesn't work with graphics mods? I got VisualV installed.
@JAM102970 Graphic mods tend to have their own timecycle presets and weather presets that seem to obscure the skydome, whether it's the original or modded skydome. However, you can try using Visual V and see for yourself if it works. I have only tried this galaxy skydome on Natural Vision and Natural Vision Remastered, but neither worked for me.
@Jadeyness Thanks for the quick response, I do have a modified "skydome.ytd" already installed from this mod > https://www.gta5-mods.com/misc/4k-moon-4k-starfield , alongside VisualV and the stars look much better than vanilla's but, it's just basically a mod that enhances the stars in the sky, no visible galaxies or anything like that. What I'm gonna do is test your mod with VisualV installed, swap the one from the "4K Moon + 4K Starfield 2.0" mod with yours and check how yours turns out with VisualV and I'll let you know how it looks. If it looks good with the VisualV graphic mod installed then I'll let you know the results so you can assure others that this mod is compatible with VIsualV. I'll get back to you on that soon.
@Jadeyness I got some good news and some bad news....the good news is that the galaxies do show up in the sky.......the bad news is that, for some reason, the chosen color of the galaxies (I chose the "Blue Neon" skydome.ytd for the test), doesn't show up very well, the galaxies have a dull, cloudish color to it. I don't know if it has to do with the graphics mod or not but, nevertheless that's how the mod shows up with the VisualV graphics mod installed. Here's a demo video of the test so you can see > https://vimeo.com/886742829?share=copy
@JAM102970 That's quite unfortunate, most likely, it is the Visual V preset obscuring the skydome. Maybe you can try tweaking the weather and clouds via Menyoo or another trainer, though I honestly think it wouldn't really help. It's just that graphics mods are complex, especially since most of their presets and textures are add-ons rather than direct replaced. Nonetheless, here's a link to my video preview showcasing all the colors of the galaxy, so you can see what blue looks like: https://youtu.be/ku8_8clvOEs
