I made some tweaks and removed the VAO exposure control. So the problem with too dark cockpits is gone.
The big change with 1.3 is, I use a special color grading to get the color more vibrant and it also gets a better contrast.

Hopefully the last version before Sol 2.0 release.
I fixed some bugs with weather transitions and i was able to improve the starmap textures. So it looks much cleaner. Also the stars brightness is adapted to the new night presets.
