Realistic reentry plasma

[Earth and Moon]

Is there an addon compatible with KSP 1.12.5 and RSS/RO that makes KSP's reentry plasma look more realistic (and smooth!) than KSP's default "rough" reentry plasma with visible triangles and vertices?

Ugly, rough default reentry plasma with obviously visible vertices/triangles and no thickness (flat mesh):


Infinitely better, smooth reentry plasma with thickness (plasma held back on the Starship's belly and the wings):
