Rust Remover

by 1Aero

Ever wanted your Factorio machines to look newer, cleaner and more shiny? Almost all base game entities have had their rust and dirt pixels replaced by more metallic cleaner versions, without removing much of the detail or shading. No game-play or balance changes, this mod is purely for aesthetic purposes. Space Age not supported as this mod is already pushing 190mb. May have limited compatibility with other mods as it directly replaces the sprites with new versions.
