Odyssey red galaxy fix

Hey commanders! Hope you're all doing well. Here's a quick fix for the ugly red galaxy:

1. Check out this post by the EDHM team, download the EDHM Skybox tool and follow the installation instructions.
2. Go to this Mediafire link and download the d3dx.ini.
3. Drop the ini file into your Elite Dangerous Odyssey folder and replace.
4. Run Odyssey and enjoy your new and improved galaxy background!

For ease of use I've disabled all the pre-installed keys to change the galaxy background that come with the Skybox tool.
You can however compare backgrounds by pressing Ctrl + F5 to revert to the original Odyssey background, and F11 to activate the improved version.

Note: Nebulae are significantly brighter due to the overall brightness increase of the galaxy background. Nothing I can do about this I'm afraid.

After + custom GEMFX settings:

To each their own I'd say.:)

Btw it's not gamma. It's a slightly blue color filter. It's to get rid of the super warm colors Elite loves so much.

Maybe it's monitor difference? It looks really washy to me. The middle one does look like Horizons though!

But yes, each to their own, indeed! (One of the best things about graphics settings (official or unofficial) - it only affects the user)

Looks like I am about 7 months late to the party. The Mediafire link to the "d3dx.ini" is no longer valid.
